Slated to serve as DH on Friday
Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Thursday that Wood (quad) will serve as the team's designated hitter during Friday's game against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Analysis
It will be Wood's Grapefruit League debut, as he's been slow played so far this spring while battling left quad tendinitis. If Wood gets through Friday's contest with no issues, the Nationals will then decide whether he's ready to play left field in a game.

Could serve as DH on Thursday
Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Tuesday that Wood (quad) could be ready to serve as the team's designated hitter Thursday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis
Wood has yet to see any action during Grapefruit League play as he overcomes left quad tendinitis. He has been working out lately without any apparent issues and appears nearly ready to at least hit in games. Barring a setback, Wood's Opening Day availability shouldn't be in question.

Returns to outfield drills
Wood (quadriceps) participated in outfield drills Sunday and continues to take batting practice, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Analysis
Wood has been limited at the start of camp due to left quadriceps tendinitis, but he was never fully shut down from baseball activities and has now resumed taking part in outfield drills. Wood remains out of the lineup for Sunday's Grapefruit League game but may not be far off from making his spring debut.

Absent for spring opener
Wood (quadriceps) is not in the lineup for Saturday's Grapefruit League opener against the Astros, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Analysis
The 22-year-old outfielder has been limited this week due to left quad tendinitis, but at this point there doesn't seem to be serious concern surrounding his Opening Day availability. As long as Wood is able to start playing in spring games next week, he will still have plenty of time to build up for the start of the season, as he looks to take the next step in 2025 following a highly successful rookie campaign.
