Fantasy Impact:

Chaparro’s left oblique strain, verified by last week’s MRI, sidelines him for weeks, costing him the Nationals’ final bench spot he’d been vying for. His season debut delays. Fantasy managers in deep dynasty leagues should stash him, expecting the 25-year-old’s bat to push for a midseason call-up if he recovers fully and earns a role in Washington’s infield later in 2025.
