Robert Hassell III of the Washington Nationals emerges as a key fantasy baseball pickup for Week 9 of 2025. Promoted recently, he's currently ranked as the No. 11 prospect in the Nationals' system. In his brief stint at Triple-A, he showcased impressive stats with a .288 batting average and nine stolen bases. Though he had a rocky start in the majors with a hitless streak, his initial debut was promising with a 2-for-5 performance including a stolen base. With injuries affecting teammates Jacob Young and Dylan Crews, Hassell is expected to secure a regular starting role.
