Washington Nationals third base/shortstop prospect Brady House went 2-for-2 with two long balls and three RBI on Thursday evening. This was his first multi-home run game of the 2024 campaign. Since moving up to Triple-A Rochester on July 7, the infielder has held a solid .283/.301/.495 slash line with five home runs, 21 RBI, six doubles, and a 3:25 BB:K ratio. House opened the summer by receiving his second look at Double-A and posted a .234/.310/.423 line. House is worth following in deeper redraft leagues as he may earn a brief taste of the majors in the coming weeks. He is shaping up to be the third baseman of the future in D.C. and could be a full-time major league player next summer.
Brady House Has A Chance To Become Nationals Third Baseman This Year
Washington Nationals infield prospect Trey Lipscomb has taken over third-base duties after the team released Nick Senzel earlier this month. While Lipscomb's defense has been solid at the hot corner, he's hit a disappointing .234/.296/.269 in 160 plate appearances. Meanwhile, infield prospect Brady House was recently promoted to Triple-A Rochester, where he's gone 4-for-12 with two doubles. If he continues to impress with the bat at the highest minor-league level, MASN's Mark Zuckerman suggests there's a real chance that House becomes the Nationals' starting third baseman before the end of the 2024 season. Lipscomb's big-league upside is probably as a utility infielder, while House profiles as the team's third baseman of the future. Although this possibility probably wouldn't play out until late August or September, House is worth stashing in deeper single-year fantasy leagues just in case.
Washington Nationals third base prospect Brady House recorded his first hit for Triple-A Rochester in his first game with the Red Wings on Tuesday. The Nationals' No. 3 prospect earned a promotion to Triple-A after hitting .234 with 13 homers and 34 RBI for Double-A Harrisburg. The 21-year-old was a first-round pick of the Nationals in the 2021 draft out of high school and has progressed to the highest level of the minors. With premium power and a big frame, House profiles as a future run producer for Washington. His first Triple-A hit is a good start as he tries to earn one final promotion on the way to a big-league debut.
Washington Nationals third base prospect Brady House has been promoted to Triple-A Rochester. The Nationals' No. 3 overall prospect hit .234 at Double-A Harrisburg with 13 homers and 34 RBI prior to his call-up to Triple-A. The 21-year-old is another in the long line of Nationals prospects making a rapid progression through the minor leagues following the footsteps of top prospects James Wood and Dylan Crews. House has a big, physical frame at 6-foot-4 and 208 pounds and possesses 60-grade power with a 55-grade hit tool. If he impresses at Triple-A, House could earn a look at the big leagues at the end of this year, but next year might be the more likely scenario.

From June 1 to 19, he slashed .259/.333/.463 with five doubles, two home runs, and seven RBI. However, he struggled for the rest of the month. Over the last nine games, he slashed .182/.206/.394 with a double, two homers, and six RBI. Overall, House is slashing .236/.310/.434 with 10 doubles, 13 homers, and 34 RBI this season.

Brady House Breaks Cold Streak With Three Hits On Tuesday
Washington Nationals third base/shortstop prospect Brady House went 3-for-4 on Tuesday with two RBI to lead Double-A Harrisburg to a victory. The 20-year-old entered Tuesday sporting a cold .218/.323/.491 slash line with a 7:16 BB:K. However, despite his lack of contact recently, he has tallied five long balls during this stretch. During April, he posted a higher .256 average and even opened the season with a six-game hitting streak. The former No. 11 overall selection in the 2021 MLB draft is considered the No. 3 prospect in the Nationals system on MLB Pipeline and is projected to reach the majors sometime next season. He is worth rostering in deeper dynasty leagues and could be worth adding in keeper leagues if he makes it to Triple-A later this summer.
Washington Nationals third base/shortstop prospect Brady House has performed well in his first extended look at Double-A this season and is making a case to be moved up to Triple-A sooner rather than later. House is currently on a three-game hitting streak and has gone hitless in just one of his past eight games. During this stretch, the 20-year-old has tallied three of his total five home runs. Overall, on the season, the third-ranked prospect in the Washington pipeline has a .266/.361/.479 line. House is projected to reach the majors in 2025 but could make a late-season push to the majors if he continues to hit this well.
Washington Nationals shortstop prospect Brady House has yet to hit a roadblock in the minor leagues. The 11th overall selection in the 2021 MLB Draft progressed through three levels of the minor leagues, Low-A, High-A, and Double-A last season, holding a solid .312/.365/.497 line. House has begun the season at Double-A and is picking up right where he left off, posting a .311/.404/.467 line. The 20-year-old has shown a strong eye at the plate and has drawn seven walks and only struck out eleven times. While House is projected to make his major league debut in 2025, at the rate he is going, do not be surprised if he is in the nation's capital this summer.
