2026 Fantasy Outlook
Crawford, son of 14-year MLB veteran Carl Crawford, is perhaps the most popular cheap speed flyer for 2026 fantasy drafts. He typically employs a slash-and-dash approach and logged a 59.4 percent groundball rate while hitting 43.3 percent of his balls to the opposite field in 2025 at Triple-A. Unless he's in a favorable count against a righty, Crawford will be looking to get on first base and steal second base -- he pilfered 46 bases on 57 attempts in 112 games last year. So far this approach has worked for the lefty-hitting outfielder, who turned 22 this winter and is not on the 40-man roster. He has steadily been at least 20 percent better than the average hitter in his leagues and is a career .322 hitter with a .385 OBP. Despite plus-plus speed, Crawford isn't a plus defender in center field, so he will need to produce against right-handed pitching to be a valuable real-life player. His .118 ISO at Triple-A was his worst such mark over a full season, but Crawford was the youngest qualified hitter at Triple-A, so his 135 wRC+ is impressive, even if it came with a .407 BABIP and very little power. He will be given a chance to win the starting center field job in spring training. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Phillies in March of 2026.
Taking seat against lefty
Crawford is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.
Analysis
As per usual, the left-handed-hitting Crawford will hit the bench while the Phillies face off against a lefty starter (Noah Cameron) in the series finale in Kansas City. Derek Hill will fill in for Crawford in center field and will bat ninth.

Stat Review
How does Justin Crawford compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Will see time in center
Crawford will be given a chance to earn the starting role in center field, according to Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer.
Analysis
"If you're going to give Crawford an opportunity, you've got to give it to him, and that's where we are," said president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski. "We're going to give him an opportunity and have him play a lot." Crawford, who will be 22 at the start of the 2026 regular season, was the Phillies' first-round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft. He spent the 2025 campaign at Triple-A, but it seems the Phillies are more than ready to see if he can play regularly in the majors.
