Dylan Crews is a right fielder for the Washington Nationals. In 2026 he hit 9 home runs and knocked in 25 RBIs, notching 55 hits across 279 plate appearances in 66 games. His batting average was .218, 10.4% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .294 clip and slugged .365, for an OPS of .659, 8.4% lower than the league mark of .719 — 11th of 14 on his team, and 291st of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 90.7 mph off the bat, hit 44.6% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 69.8% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 82 wRC+ puts his offence 18% below average. That comes to 0.3 dbWAR — -5.2 runs with the bat, +1.0 on the bases, -1.9 for the position he plays, against replacement level. It includes no fielding: defensive runs are proprietary and are not estimated here, so the figure credits playing a demanding position but not playing it well.

wOBA uses linear weights measured from this season's own play-by-play rather than published constants, and wRC+ is park-adjusted against that same league. dbWAR is our own open implementation — not fWAR or bWAR — and the full derivation, including its simplifications, is on the methodology page.
