Crews is a hold — his skill sits right at league average.

His expected wOBA is .317, within two points of the league average of .315, and at 443 plate appearances the number is well past the point where it becomes reliable. That is the whole call. His actual wOBA is .294, .021 below that, but his swinging-strike rate of 15.2% against a league average of 11.0% and his chase rate of 32.1% explain where the gap comes from — a strikeout rate of 24.2% keeps his batting average down even when he makes hard contact. The contact has been trending up across the sample, and the underlying skill has firmed at league level. There is nothing unstable here to buy low on and nothing inflated to sell. Hold.
