Dylan Crews was a star outfielder for the LSU Tigers, becoming a crucial piece of the 2023 College World Series team.
Crews slashed .380/.498/.689 with 58 homers and 184 RBI over three seasons in Baton Rouge.
After an elite college career, Crews was drafted with the 2nd overall pick of the 2023 MLB Draft by the Washington Nationals. The young outfielder is wasting no time making his mark in the minors.

Crews’ 2nd homer and 1st grand slam as a pro gave the Fredericksburg Nationals an 8-2 lead over the Lynchburg Hillcats.
Crews has been red hot through his first three games with Fredericksburg, slashing .308/.308/.615. LSU fans saw Crews perform like this many times in his legendary college career. At this rate, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Crews get his MLB call sooner than expected.
