Washington Nationals' fantasy outlook for 2026: James Wood's superstar potential and Mackenzie Gore's Jekyll-and-Hyde season

Dominick Martino breaks down the Nationals' key players for fantasy baseball. Wood's monster 2025 campaign (31 HR, 94 RBI, 15 SB) cements his top-10 OF status. C.J. Abrams' value is debated, while Dylan Crews emerges as a late-round lottery ticket. Luis Garcia Jr.'s mixed 2025 raises questions about his 2026 ceiling. Gore's dominant first half (3.02 ERA) and disastrous second half (6.75 ERA) leave fantasy managers uncertain.

Discover why Wood could be a fantasy cornerstone and which Nationals' prospects might impact your 2026 draft strategy.
