INJURIES

Best game of young career Wood went 4-for-5 with two doubles, a walk, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 14-3 win over the Cardinals.
Impact Wood entered Saturday 0-for-15 with eight strikeouts and one walk over his last four games. He made up for the slump throughout this contest, producing the first four-hit game of his career. The outfield prospect lifted his batting average to .235 with a .650 OPS, two home runs, three doubles, 15 RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases through 22 contests overall. Wood still has some learning to do on the job, as evidenced by a 35.1 percent strikeout rate, but he's also shown promise while playing on an everyday basis since coming up to the majors at the start of July.

Lifts go-ahead homer Wood went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run during Sunday's 5-2 win over the Reds.
Impact Wood's second career homer couldn't have come at a better time for Washington, breaking the 2-2 tie in the bottom of the eighth inning and providing closer Kyle Finnegan with three runs of cushion to finish off the win. The 21-year-old outfielder has appeared in 17 games with the Nationals this season, slashing .246/.319/.354 with 12 RBI and seven runs while striking out at a 33.3 percent clip.

On base three times Sunday Wood went 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.
Impact The 21-year-old rookie is already being pitched around and treated as the most dangerous hitter in the Nationals' lineup, drawing six free passes in his first seven MLB games. Wood is doing damage when he gets his bat on the ball too, batting .320 (8-for-25) with a double, a homer and six RBI while hitting third against right-handed pitching.

Launches first career homer Wood went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run and five RBI in Saturday's 14-6 rout of the Cardinals.
Impact It was a huge day for the Nationals' young offense, and Wood was at the center of the eruption, crushing an opposite-field three-run home run off Lance Lynn in the second inning. It took the 21-year-old only six MLB games to launch his first homer, and Wood hasn't had much trouble adjusting to big-league pitching since his promotion, batting .304 (7-for-23) with a 4:6 BB:K.

Notched first MLB steal Wood went 2-for-3 with a run, an RBI and a stolen base in a 7-5 win against the Mets on Wednesday.
Impact Wood was just 1-for-7 over his first two big-league games before notching his first multi-hit performance Wednesday. He also picked up his first big-league run, RBI and stolen base in the contest. Wood showed that he can come through in the clutch, as his seventh-inning RBI single broke a 5-5 tie and proved to be the decisive knock in Washington's win.

Collects first hit in debut Wood went 1-for-4 with a walk in Monday's 9-7 loss to the Mets.
Impact The 21-year-old recorded a hit in his first major-league plate appearance, knocking a single to left off David Peterson. Wood later worked a five-pitch walk in the 10th inning. After slashing .353/.463/.595 in 231 plate appearances at Triple-A, the Washington outfielder appears set to play every day in left field for the Nationals. Wood has all the tools to be a fantasy star, as he reached double-digits in both homers and steals -- 10 apiece -- with 37 RBI and 44 runs scored in 52 games with Rochester before his call-up.

Batting sixth in major-league debut Wood will start in left field and bat sixth in Monday's contest versus the Mets.
Impact The left-handed hitting Wood will go up against southpaw David Peterson in his major-league debut. Left-handers didn't bother the 21-year-old at all this season at Triple-A Rochester. In fact, he was a bit better versus them (1.089 OPS0 than he was against righties (1.047 OPS).
JULY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Looks ready for game action Wood (hamstring) is expected to resume playing in games early this week, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Golden's report doesn't specify whether Wood will embark on a rehab assignment with one of the Nationals' lower-level affiliates or if he'll immediately rejoin the Triple-A Rochester lineup, but either way, the 22-year-old looks close to making a return from the right hamstring injury that has kept him out of action since May 23. The injury may have temporarily halted any momentum Wood had for earning a call-up to the big leagues, but the outfielder still looks on track to make his Nationals debut at some point later in 2024. He's performed as one of the International League's top hitters when available this season, slashing .355/.465/.596 with nine home runs, 10 stolen bases and a 17.4 percent walk rate.
JUNE 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on Triple-A IL Wood (hamstring) was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday with right hamstring tightness, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Wood tweaked the hamstring during a game last Thursday and has been sidelined ever since. It's not clear how much more time he might miss, but it means he won't be a candidate for a major-league promotion in the short term. Wood, 21, is slashing a robust .355/.465/.596 with nine home runs, 10 stolen bases and a 37:35 K:BB over 45 games with Rochester this season.
