Eligibility
The Nationals have optioned Alex Call to Triple-A Rochester.

Call played well in his limited time with the Nationals, posting a .313 batting average in seven games. Victor Robles was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move.
Alex Call is not in the Nationals lineup on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Call is hitting 4-for-9 across four games so far this season. Eddie Rosario is starting in right field for Washington.
Nationals outfielder Alex Call is back in the starting lineup Thursday versus the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Call didn't start Wednesday's series finale with the White Sox but did draw a walk in a pinch-hitting plate appearance. It's been tough sledding at the plate for Call as he's hitting just .196 with seven homers, nine steals, and a .598 OPS across 430 trips to the plate.
Despite a low batting average this season, Call has shown some power with seven home runs and has contributed in multiple offensive categories with 40 runs scored and nine stolen bases.
Fantasy Impact
However, his high strikeout rate and low walk rate continue to be areas of concern for his fantasy value going forward.
The Nationals called up Alex Call from Triple-A Rochester.
Fantasy Impact
Call will get his opportunity with Victor Robles (back) on the IL and Derek Hill designated for assignment. He was hitting .209 prior to being sent down.
