Top Alex Call News

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Back in fourth-outfielder role

    Call is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

    Since turning in four two-hit performances in his first eight games of the season, Call has slashed just .111/.227/.111 over his ensuing eight contests. Call's downturn in productivity appears to have cost him an everyday role; he'll be on the bench for a fifth straight game Wednesday while Jacob Young and Dylan Crews have both picked up the pace at the plate of late and have usurped him as regular options in the Washington outfield.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Not starting matinee

    Call is out of the lineup for Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Rockies, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    After making starts in 11 of 12 games, Call finds himself on the bench for the second straight game. The 30-year-old has been productive early in 2025 with a .300/.415/.400 slash line and 10:3 BB:K through 54 plate appearances.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Out of lineup Saturday

    Call is not in the Nationals' starting lineup against the Rockies on Saturday.

    Call will begin Saturday's contest in the dugout while Jacob Young starts in center field and bats eighth against Rockies right-hander Chase Dollander. Call has started the season slashing .300/.415/.400 with one stolen base, six runs scored and eight RBI in 54 plate appearances.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Drives in lone run Wednesday

    Call went 0-for-3 with a sacrifice fly in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Pirates.

    The Nationals didn't get on the board until the ninth inning, when Call brought Dylan Crews home on a sacrifice fly to center field. Call started the season strongly with three multi-hit efforts in his first eight contests, but he's cooled off and has gone 1-for-14 with three walks in his past five games.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Getting day off Tuesday

    Call is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

    Jacob Young is making the start in center field, with James Wood in left, Dylan Crews in right and Josh Bell serving as the designated hitter against Pirates right-hander Mitch Keller. Call is slashing an impressive .324/.457/.441 with three extra-base hits, seven RBI, six runs and a 10:2 BB:K across 46 plate appearances this season.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Starting Friday after all

    Call is starting in left field and batting sixth against the Marlins on Friday.

    Call was initially slated for a day off Friday, but he's been inserted into the Nationals' starting lineup due to Nathaniel Lowe (illness) being scratched. Across seven games, Call has gone 8-for-20 with five walks, one stolen base and five RBI.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Sitting out Friday

    Call is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in Miami.

    Call had started the last five games and seven of the last eight contests, but he will begin Friday's series opener on the bench. Dylan Crews will play right field and Jacob Young will patrol center field for the Nationals.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Emerging as regular right fielder

    Call will start in right field and bat second in Monday's game versus the Dodgers.

    It marks the fifth start over the last five games for Call and his highest placement in the batting order this season. He's earned the playing time by sporting a robust 1.279 OPS in the early going for the Nationals. With Call's emergence as a regular for Washington, Dylan Crews has become the team's primary center fielder and Jacob Young has been a reserve.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Swipes first bag in win

    Call went 2-for-2 with a walk, two RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Call delivered RBI singles in the first and fourth innings and also swiped his first bag of the season. The 30-year-old has gone 4-for-8 in three starts to open the year and is seeing inconsistent playing time as Washington's No. 4 outfielder.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Set for bench role

    Call is expected to begin the season as the Nationals' fourth outfielder, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

    The 30-year-old may not see much work however, with Dylan Crews, Jacob Young and James Wood entrenched in the starting lineup and all 25 years of age or younger. Call solidified his spot on the Opening Day roster by batting .333 (13-for-39) this spring with 12 walks against only five strikeouts, but his .231/.332/.364 career slash line in the majors better reflects his lack of fantasy upside should he find himself getting consistent playing time.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Nearing rehab assignment

    Manager Dave Martinez said Tuesday that Call (foot) will embark on a rehab assignment soon in hopes of returning before the end of the regular season, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    The 29-year-old landed on the injured list in late August due to a partial tear of the plantar fascia in his left foot, and he's now on the cusp of returning to game action. Call has been productive when up with the Nationals this season with a .343/.425/.525 slash line in 30 games, and a healthy finish to the campaign would set him up for a normal offseason heading into 2025.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Placed on 10-day IL

    The Nationals placed Call on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a partial tear of the plantar fascia in his left foot.

    Call was carted off the field in Friday's game against Atlanta after falling to the ground while pursuing a flyball. More tests are needed, but given the nature of the injury, the Nationals could elect to hold Call out for the remainder of the season. It's a brutal blow for the 29-year-old, who was slashing .343/.425/.525 with five stolen bases, nine doubles, three home runs and 14 RBI across 113 plate appearances this season. Dylan Crews is slated to be called up Monday, but in the interim, Drew Millas was recalled from Triple-A Rochester to take the Call's spot on the 26-man roster for the weekend.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Carted off field

    Call fell to the ground pursuing a fly ball during Friday's game against Atlanta and was carted off the field, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    While the specifics of the injury are unknown at this point, it's certainly not a good sign that Call required a cart to exit the field. The right fielder attempted to walk off under his own power but was unable to do so. With Dylan Crews already set to join the big-league roster Monday, Call's injury may have created an immediate opening in the starting nine for the top prospect to fill.

  • Nationals' Alex Call: Goes yard again Sunday

    Call went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Phillies.

    The 29-year-old outfielder has three homers in 99 big-league plate appearances this year, and two of them came in back-to-back games this weekend. Call has cooled down a bit since he reeled off six straight multi-hit performances earlier this month, going just 5-for-25 (.200) since with a 1:6 BB:K, but four of those knocks have gone for extra bases.
