The No. 2 pick in 2023’s MLB Draft, Dylan Crews, received his Golden Spikes Award over the weekend, in recognition of USA Baseball naming him, “… the best amateur baseball player in the U.S.,” this year, and he and his LSU teammates got their 2023 NCAA championship rings at a Tigers’ football game.
The top position player selected in last year’s draft, Crews is currently ranked the top prospect in the Nationals’ organization, “… and a top five prospect in all of baseball according to Baseball America and MLBPipeline.com,” as Washington’s Nationals noted in a press release on the 21-year-old outfielder’s latest accolades.
