Start getting skipped Williams's next start is being skipped, but will make another start next week, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact The weekend rotation for the Nationals in Atlanta will be Jake Irvin, Patrick Corbin, Joan Adon, and another to be announced. Currently, Williams's next probable start would be Sept. 27 at Baltimore. The 31-year-old has had a rough September. In his three starts, he has allowed 17 earned runs in 10.1 innings.

Lasts just two frames Saturday Williams allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out one batter over two innings in a no-decision against Milwaukee on Saturday.

Impact Williams was ambushed from the outset, allowing six of the first seven batters he faced in the contest to reach base, with the only out during that span coming by way of a sacrifice fly. That led to three runs, though it could have been much worse, as the Brewers finished the inning with the bases loaded. Williams was better in the second, facing the minimum three batters thanks to an inning-ending double play, but he didn't return to the mound for the third after tossing 70 pitches. It's been a rough go for the right-hander of late, as he's surrendered a whopping 18 runs (17 earned) over 10.1 frames across his past three starts.

Handed loss No. 10 Williams (6-10) suffered the loss Sunday against the Dodgers, allowing six runs on eight hits and four walks while striking out four over 4.1 innings.

Impact Williams allowed four runs to score through the first two frames, highlighted by a solo home run from James Outman in the second. He kept the Dodgers off the board in the third and fourth but exited the game in the fifth with the bases loaded following two walks and a single. He threw 101 pitches and just 55 strikes before departing the game and has now failed to reach five innings in five of his last seven starts while registering an 8.39 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and 29:16 K:BB over that span. Williams has just two wins since the start of July and will look to find his groove again in a projected start against the Brewers.

Lit up in loss Williams (6-9) took the loss Saturday, allowing nine runs (eight earned) on 12 hits over four innings against Miami while striking out three.

Impact It was a rough afternoon for Williams as the right-hander allowed season highs in hits (12), earned runs (eight) and homers (four). He surrendered runs in all four innings in which he appeared and failed to make it through five frames for the fourth time in his last six outings. Williams has now lost five of his last six decisions (spanning 10 starts) and has given up at least three home runs in three of his last five starts.

Suffers tough-luck loss Williams (6-8) took the loss Sunday against the Marlins after allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five over seven innings.

Impact Williams turned in another impressive outing and actually recorded consecutive quality starts for the first time this season. Williams allowed both his runs in the third after Luis Arraez led off with a single and Jorge Soler followed with a two-run homer. He's now given up just two runs over his last 13 innings after allowing 20 runs in 19 innings over a span of four starts. Williams now sits at a 4.82 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 99:45 K:BB in 130.2 innings. He has just one win since early July and will look to change that in a rematch with Miami his next time out.

Fires six shutout innings Williams (6-7) yielded two hits and three walks over six scoreless frames Sunday, striking out four and earning a victory against the Phillies.

Impact Williams rolled through the Phillies despite throwing just 54 of 94 pitches for strikes. It was his first scoreless appearance since June 21. He'd been rocked for 20 runs over his previous 19 innings but lowered his season ERA back down to 4.95 after Sunday's outing. Williams' next start is lined up to be in Miami.

Struggles against A's Williams did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks over 4.1 innings against Oakland. He struck out four.

Impact The A's got to Williams early Sunday with three runs on a pair of first-inning homers. However, the 31-year-old right-hander was ultimately spared the loss when the Nats rallied for six runs in the ninth to win 8-7. Still, it's been a struggle for Williams of late. He's allowed six home runs over his previous two starts while pitching to a 9.47 ERA in his last four outings. Overall, he's 5-7 with a 5.20 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 90:40 K:BB across 24 starts (117.2 innings this season). Williams will try to right the ship in his next outing, currently scheduled as a home matchup with the Phillies.

Impact Making his first start since a stint on the bereavement list, Williams did set a new season high in strikeouts but was hit very hard when the Phillies did make contact. The veteran right-hander's 1.99 HR/9 is the worst mark of his career during a season in which he's thrown 100 or more innings, and it's inflated his ERA to 5.00. He figures to have a little more success keeping the ball in the park in his next outing, at home this weekend against the A's.

AUGUST 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Return delayed due to rain Williams will not start Monday against the Phillies as scheduled, as the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

Impact Williams was set to return from the bereavement list Monday, but he will have to wait at least one more day. Monday's contest will be made up right away Tuesday as part of a doubleheader, and Williams figures to take the ball in one of those two contests.

AUGUST 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Activated, starting Monday The Nationals reinstated Williams (personal) from the bereavement list Sunday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Williams ended up having his turn in the rotation skipped this week after he spent six days on the bereavement list upon being deactivated Monday. Though Joan Adon submitted an excellent spot start in his stead Saturday, Williams will regain his spot in the rotation and take the hill for Monday's series opener in Philadelphia, per Andrew Golden of The Washington Post.

AUGUST 1, 2023 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM

Moves to bereavement list The Nationals placed Williams (personal) on the bereavement list Monday, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Washington recalled reliever Hobie Harris from Triple-A Rochester to replace Williams on the 26-man active roster. Per MLB rules, players must spend at least three days on the bereavement list but no more than seven, so Williams could be activated by the time his next turn in the rotation comes up this weekend in Cincinnati.

JULY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set for bereavement leave Nationals manager Dave Martinez said that Williams is set to be placed on the bereavement list Monday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Impact The transaction isn't expected to be made official until a few hours before the Nationals' series opener with the Brewers, which begins at 7:05 p.m. ET. Williams most recently started in the Nationals' loss to the Mets on Sunday, when he worked four innings while surrendering five runs on seven hits and four walks. The right-hander will likely be ready to return from bereavement leave before his next turn through the rotation comes up this weekend in Cincinnati.

JULY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rocked by Mets Williams (5-6) took the loss Sunday, allowing five runs on seven hits and four walks over four innings against the Mets. He struck out two.

Impact Williams tied his season highs in earned runs allowed and walks allowed Sunday as he fell to his sixth loss of 2023. He also surrendered a solo homer to Francisco Lindor in the fourth inning, marking his eighth long ball given up in his last seven starts. During that stretch, Williams owns a 6.06 ERA and a 21:13 K:BB. The 31-year-old is projected to make his next start during a three-game road series in Cincinnati this weekend,

Escapes with no-decision Tuesday Williams didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Rockies, giving up four runs on nine hits over six innings. He struck out three without walking a batter.

Impact The first pitch was delayed by nearly 90 minutes due to rain, and that may have disrupted Williams' focus as he gave up a pair of runs in the second and third innings before settling in. After a second rain delay, the Nationals were able to steal a win with a late rally and take him off the hook for his sixth loss of the year, however. The right-hander hasn't produced a quality start since June 21, stumbling to a 5.34 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 19:9 K:BB through 28.2 innings over his last six outings. Williams will try to bounce back in his next start, which is likely to come on the road this weekend against the Mets.

JULY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Solid in no-decision Williams allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks with one strikeout over five innings in a no-decision versus the Cubs on Wednesday.

Impact Williams has allowed nine or more baserunners in five of his last nine starts. He was able to get away with it for the most part Wednesday, though the one strikeout matched his season low. The right-hander is now at a 4.38 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 74:33 K:BB through 98.2 innings over 20 starts this season. He's projected for a home start versus the Rockies next week.

JULY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Hit with fifth loss Williams (5-5) took the loss Friday, giving up four runs on seven hits and three walks over six innings as the Nationals were downed 7-2 by the Rangers. He struck out five.

Impact It's the right-hander's first loss in over a month, although his 4.81 ERA and 1.64 WHIP during the five starts in between defeats suggested he was overdue for one. Williams continues to do little more than give Washington innings, and the 31-year-old could get bumped from the rotation at some point in the second half if the Nats decide to take a look at a younger option like Jackson Rutledge.

JULY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rebounds for fifth win Williams (5-4) earned the win Sunday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks over five innings against Philadelphia. He struck out one.

Impact It was a rough start for Williams, allowing three runs on a pair of homers in the first inning. However, he'd settle down to pitch four scoreless innings as the Nationals rallied to a 5-4 victory. The 31-year-old Williams has made it through six innings just once in his last eight outings. He now sports a 4.34 ERA with a 1.42 WHIP and 63:27 K:BB across 17 starts (85 innings) this season. Williams currently lines up for a tough home matchup with the Rangers in his next outing.

JULY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lasts only four frames Monday Williams allowed three runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four batters over four innings in a no-decision against Seattle on Monday.

Impact Williams served up a long ball to the first batter he faced, and things didn't get much better for him as a he failed to record any 1-2-3 innings. The right-hander needed 83 pitches to complete just four frames, and he was pulled after allowing two runs on three hits in his final inning of work. It was the shortest outing of the campaign for Williams aside from a 2.1-inning effort against the Mets on May 13 that was suspended due to inclement weather. For the most part, Williams has been a steady and dependable rotation staple for the last-place Nationals, though his 4.28 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 62:25 K:BB over 80 frames convey little fantasy value.

JUNE 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sharp in fourth win Williams (4-4) picked up the win in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over the Cardinals, scattering five hits over six scoreless innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.

Impact The veteran right-hander was brilliant over 75 pitches (50 strikes), and after he left a first-inning double by Lars Nootbaar stranded at second base, Williams didn't allow another runner to get into scoring position. The quality start was only his third of the year, and he'll carry a 4.14 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 58:24 K:BB through 76 innings into his next outing, likely to come early next week in Seattle.
