EDGE Analysis

Call hit a leadoff home run off Jose Urena to give the Nationals a 1-0 lead. The outfielder also walked in a run in the third and hit a sacrifice fly in the fifth. The homer was the first of the season for Call, and he's now driven in seven runs over six games.

Call is batting leadoff for the Nationals on Friday at Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Call hit second on Wednesday and Thursday, and now he jumps to the very top of the lineup Friday versus the Rockies and right-hander Jose Urena. The 28-year-old has been serving as the Nationals' primary left fielder in the absence of Corey Dickerson (calf) and boasts a .400 on-base percentage through 20 total plate appearances.

Call is batting second again for the Nationals on Thursday at Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Call also occupied the No. 2 spot in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the Rays. The 28-year-old outfielder boasts a .438 on-base percentage with four RBI through four games played this season, and so far he's taken advantage of the absence of Corey Dickerson (calf).

Call went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's loss to Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

All three hits were singles, but it was still a productive night for Call, who has started two of three games in left field since Corey Dickerson (calf) landed on the IL. Call hit fifth Tuesday, but he could soon work his way up to the top of the order after beginning the year by going 3-for-8 with a 3:3 BB:K in three starts.

Call is starting in left field and batting fifth for the Nationals on Tuesday night against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Call looks poised to receive the bulk of starts in left while Corey Dickerson recovers from a calf strain. The 28-year-old hit the cover off the ball at spring training but is 0-for-4 with two walks and three strikeouts so far this season.

Nationals manager Dave Martinez announced Tuesday that Call will open the season as the team's fourth outfielder, Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Call has posted an impressive .333/.426/.436 batting line through 47 plate appearances this spring in Grapefruit League play. He also showed pretty well in his first taste of MLB action last year between Cleveland and Washington. The 28-year-old can cover all three outfield spots, which certainly helped his case to make the Opening Day roster.

Call went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old had a hot start to his spring, collecting multiple hits in five of his first 10 games, but over his last five contests Call has gone 1-for-12 with five strikeouts as opposing pitchers have gotten a little more focused. He's still very much in the running for a spot on the Nationals' bench and potentially the short side of a left-field platoon with Corey Dickerson, but his late fade might be opening the door for Stone Garrett to seize that role instead. The rebuilding Nationals are also likely keeping an eye on the waiver wire for possible upgrades as the end of camp approaches. Call posted a .945 OPS with 13 homers and nine steals in 76 games at Triple-A last year, but his big-league debut was a little bumpier with a .748 OPS in 131 plate appearances between Washington and Cleveland.

Call isn't in the lineup Monday against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Call has gone just 2-for-15 with two runs, a stolen base, two walks and eight strikeouts over his last four games, and he'll remain on the bench for a third consecutive matchup. Cesar Hernandez will start in left field and bat sixth.

Call is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
