Dylan Crews swings big in Nationals' narrow loss

Dylan Crews went 1-for-5 in the Nationals' 7-6 loss to the Cubs with a home run, one run scored, and one RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Crews's ability to connect for a home run highlights his potential power at the plate, which fantasy managers should find encouraging. With a batting average of .313 and a wOBA of .475 through his first four games, Crews is showing signs of being a valuable fantasy asset, especially if he can maintain his power-hitting and improve his contact rate. However, his high strikeout rate and low walk rate suggest some volatility in his performance, so fantasy managers might want to temper expectations until he shows more consistency.
