Nationals' James Wood: Goes yard again Monday
Wood went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Mets.
His massive 438-foot blast to right-center field spoiled a combined shutout bid for New York, coming in the eighth inning off Jose Urena. Wood is one back of Eugenio Suarez and Cal Raleigh for the major-league lead in home runs with nine, and the 22-year-old's longest homer drought of the season so far is only five games. Through 127 plate appearances, Wood is slashing .257/.362/.560 with three steals, 18 runs and 20 RBI as he surges toward a breakout campaign.

Nationals' James Wood: Scorches eighth homer
Wood went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Orioles.
The 22-year-old outfielder absolutely demolished a Tomoyuki Sugano sinker to lead off the bottom of the first inning, as the ball left his bat at 116.3 mph -- the hardest-hit homer of Wood's career. Per Jessica Camerato of MLB.com, only Bryce Harper has matched that exit velocity on a Nats homer since Statcast begin tracking the metric in 2015. Wood is slashing .256/.356/.578 through 24 games with eight homers, three steals, 17 runs and 18 RBI, and his eight long balls are just one off the major-league lead shared by Cal Raleigh, Tyler Soderstrom and Corbin Carroll.

Over his past 10 games, the 22-year-old has gone deep five times with two three-hit efforts. He's slashing an impressive .253/.356/.573 with seven home runs, 17 RBI, 13 runs scored and three steals across 87 plate appearances so far in 2025.

For the second time in his career, the 22-year-old collected a homer and a steal in the same game, the first coming Aug. 6, 2024. Wood launched a majestic 395-foot long ball to center in the seventh inning to push Washington's lead to 5-2. Through 40 plate appearances, the Nationals outfielder sports a .222/.300/.444 slash line that is hindered by a 37.5 percent strikeout rate.

Nationals' James Wood: Belts first 2025 homer
Wood went 2-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Blue Jays.
The 22-year-old went back-to-back with CJ Abrams in the sixth inning to account for the Nationals' only runs of the night. The blast was the first of the season for Wood, who had struck out seven times in 13 plate appearances during his first three games of 2025. Growing pains are to be expected for Wood, but big things are expected from him after he produced nine homers, 14 steals and a .781 OPS in 79 big-league games last year.

Nationals' James Wood: Continues spring power display
Wood went 2-for-3 with a double, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Sunday's Grapefruit league game against the Rays.
The 22-year-old outfielder wasted no time in making an impact, taking Connor Seabold deep in the first inning. Wood has been raking this spring, batting .379 (11-for-29) with four doubles and four homers with a 4:9 BB:K. After slashing .264/.354/.427 in 79 games during his big-league debut last year, Wood could be poised to take a big step forward in 2025.
