"The 2025 season was a frustrating one for the Washington Nationals, as the team ended up having a worse record than they had in previous years despite having more talent. It was tough to watch for a vast majority of the season, but there were some bright spots that emerged. A few of those bright spots appeared in the outfield, as between rookie standout Daylen Lile and young phenom James Wood, it looks like the team has a cemented outfield duo for the future."
"Just earlier today, it was announced via Fansided.com that Wood is going to be a finalist for a 2025 National League Silver Slugger Award, along with a handful of other awesome outfielders. Wood, who just completed his first full big-league season, is nominated for the award for the first time, and he very well may emerge from the field with what should hopefully be his first of many Silver Slugger Awards."
The 2025 season was a frustrating one for the Washington Nationals, as the team finished with a worse record than in previous years despite possessing more talent. Bright spots emerged in the outfield with rookie standout Daylen Lile and young phenom James Wood forming a potential long-term duo. Dylan Crews remains a key developmental prospect who still has significant progress to make before joining the outfield core. Front office activity included hiring Paul Toboni as President of Baseball Operations and an active search for a new manager. James Wood completed his first full big-league season and earned a 2025 National League Silver Slugger finalist nomination. Other outfield finalists include Corbin Carroll, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Juan Soto, and Kyle Stowers, with three of the five to receive hardware.
