Jacob Young: Breaking News

Pops eighth homer

Young went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's loss to the Marlins. The center fielder took Sandy Alcantara deep in the second inning to give the Nationals an early 2-1 lead, but the bullpen wasn't able to make it stick in an eventual 7-3 loss. Known for his speed and defensive prowess and not his slugging coming into 2026, Young is up to eight homers on the season, and five of them have come in his last 16 games -- a stretch in which he's slashing a stunning .308/.386/.718 with two steals, seven runs and 10 RBI over 44 plate appearances.

On bench Saturday

Young isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against San Diego. Young will get a chance to rest his legs Saturday after tallying five hits across his last five games, adding a homer, two RBI and three runs in that span. Daylen Lile, Dylan Crews and James Wood will start across the outfield while Young sits.

Surprising power surge continues

Young went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Monday's win over the Guardians. The center fielder came into 2026 with five career homers in 303 MLB games, but through 53 contests to begin the current campaign he's already gone yard seven times, including his second-inning shot off Tanner Bibee on Monday. Four of Young's blasts have come in the last 10 games, a stretch in which he's slashing an eye-popping .391/.462/.957 with one steal, five runs and seven RBI.
