9 months agoWashington Nationals third baseman
Trey Lipscomb is being promoted to the major league roster, according to Andrew Golden of the Washington Post. Lipscomb has made 38 starts throughout the 2024 season in the majors and has held a .237/.311/.271 line with just one home run, nine RBI, 10 stolen bases, and an 11:21 BB:K ratio. At Triple-A this season, the 24-year-old performed quite well with a .290/.336/.427 line with three long balls, 20 RBI, two stolen bases, and an 8:26 BB:K ratio. Lipscomb could see time at the hot corner during his next major league stint but should be left on the waiver wire until he receives consistent playing time.

9 months agoThe Washington Nationals have demoted third base prospect
Trey Lipscomb to Triple-A Rochester. Lipscomb got some run earlier in the year, but gone up and down from the farm since. Lipscomb struggled in his recent call-up by having one hit over 11 at-bats. With no clear spot, it makes sense for Lipscomb to continue to get playing time on a regular basis. At 24-years-old, Lipscomb has likely reached his ceiling and is more useful for the Nationals then dynasty leagues. He can safely remain on the wire for now. Replacing Lipscomb will be veteran first baseman
Harold Ramirez, who can also remain on the waiver wire.

10 months agoThe Washington Nationals recalled rookie infielder
Trey Lipscomb from Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday and placed first baseman/outfielder
Joey Gallo (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a left-hamstring strain in a corresponding move. Lipscomb, the team's No. 16 prospect per MLB Pipeline, made his big-league debut earlier this year and went 27-for-107 (.252) with a homer, a double, nine RBI, 10 stolen bases and 16 runs scored in 33 games in D.C. The former third-round selection in 2022 out of Tennessee was hitting .247 (23-for-93) with no home runs, eight RBI and two steals in 24 games for Rochester and won't bring a ton of offensive upside for fantasy managers in NL-only leagues, aside from his speed. With Gallo on the shelf, expect Lipscomb to share some playing time at first base with
Joey Meneses.

11 months agoWashington Nationals rookie corner infielder
Trey Lipscomb had a great offensive showing in Tuesday's Game 1, a 6-3 win over the White Sox. Lipscomb went 3-for-3 with three singles, a walk, an RBI, and three stolen bases. The 23-year-old has provided decent average and speed this season, slashing .260/.339/.298 with one home run, 16 runs scored, nine RBI, and 10 stolen bases in 199 plate appearances. He is currently rostered in just one percent of leagues and is worth a look in deeper roto leagues.
