Can't get through fifth Williams did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing five runs on seven hits and three walks over 4.1 innings against the Marlins. He struck out two.

Impact Williams tied his season high with five runs allowed and walked at least three batters for the fourth time over his past five outings. He's also given up a home run in six straight starts and eight total during that stretch. Overall, the right-hander holds a 4.50 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 54:24 K:BB across 14 appearances (70 innings). Despite his struggles, Williams remains a steady piece of Washington's rotation and is scheduled to pitch again during a three-game series versus the Cardinals.

Strikes out six in third win Williams (3-4) earned the win Sunday, allowing two runs on seven hits and one walk across five innings in a 6-2 win over Atlanta. He struck out six.

Impact Williams snapped a two-game losing streak with five sharp innings against Atlanta's prolific offense. The right-hander is still struggling with the long ball and has now given up seven home runs over his past five starts, but he did correct his recent command concerns, allowing just one walk Sunday after issuing 10 free passes over his previous three outings. Overall, Williams holds a 4.11 ERA and a 52:10 K:BB across 13 appearances (65.2 innings) and has a steady spot in Washington's rotation.

Suffers fourth loss Sunday Williams (2-4) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on six hits and four walks over 5.2 innings against the Phillies. He struck out six.

Impact Williams continues to struggle with his command and has walked 10 batters over his past three appearances. During that stretch, he's surrendered 15 hits and 13 runs (seven earned), including six home runs. Things certainly haven't gone as planned during his first campaign in Washington, but his 4.15 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across 12 appearances (60.2 innings) are good enough to remain on fantasy radars. Williams will face another stiff test during his next start, which is tentatively scheduled during a three-game weekend set in Atlanta.

Struggles in loss Williams (2-3) took the loss Monday, allowing six runs on six hits and three walks over five innings against the Dodgers. He struck out three.

Impact This was the most amount of runs that Williams has allowed in a start so far this season. The right-hander had recently been on a good stretch, coughing up just seven runs across his three previous appearances combined. The eight-year-veteran is slated to face the Phillies at home in his next start.

Falls short of quality start Williams (2-2) picked up the win in Wednesday's 5-3 victory over the Padres, giving up three runs on three hits and three walks over 5.2 innings while striking out five.

Impact It was far from a sharp performance -- Williams tossed only 53 of 94 pitches for strikes and served up two homers -- but he did just enough, and got just enough run support, to collect his first win since April 8. The veteran right-hander has provided the Nationals with some stability at the back of their rotation, allowing more than three runs in only two of his 10 starts. He'll take a 4.32 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 27:13 K:BB through 50 innings into his next outing, likely to come on the road early next week against the Dodgers.

Takes loss despite quality start Williams (1-2) was tagged with the loss against Miami on Thursday, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five batters over six innings.

Impact Williams pitched fairly well in the outing, tying his season high with six innings and recording his second quality start of the campaign. However, rookie phenom Eury Perez allowed just one run over five frames, and the Nationals couldn't muster enough offense against Miami's bullpen to take Williams off the hook for the loss. The right-hander has just one win over nine starts on the season, but he's been serviceable for Washington with a 4.26 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB through 44.1 innings.

Start postponed due to weather Williams had his start against the Mets on Saturday postponed due to inclement weather, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact The game was delayed for over three hours before the decision to postpone. Williams threw 2.1 scoreless innings, but those stats won't count with the game being made up against the Mets on Sunday in a split doubleheader.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Escapes with no-decision Williams allowed five runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.1 innings Sunday versus the Diamondbacks. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact This was Williams' worst start of the season, although the five strikeouts were a season high. He gave up solo home runs to Lourdes Gurriel and Christian Walker, and trouble in the fifth inning led to Williams' early removal, only for Andres Machado to give up another homer to Gurriel. The rough outing raised Williams' ERA from 3.41 to 4.25, and the right-hander now has a 1.33 WHIP and 26:9 K:BB through 36 innings across seven starts. He could have a tough time bouncing back next weekend in a projected home start versus the Mets.

Denied win Tuesday Williams didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Cubs, allowing four hits and a walk over 5.1 scoreless innings. He struck out four.

Impact The journeyman right-hander produced his best start so far in 2023, tossing 55 of 87 pitches for strikes and exiting with the Nationals ahead 1-0, but his second win of the year got snatched away when the Cubs tied it up in the top of the seventh. Williams will take a respectable 3.41 ERA and 1.23 WHIP into his next outing. likely to come this weekend in Arizona.

MAY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gives up four in no-decision Williams did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing four runs on nine hits and two walks over five innings against the Mets. He struck out four.

Impact Wiliams' four earned runs and nine hits allowed both set new season-highs, as the 31-year-old was knocked around by the Mets. Three of the four runs came in the fourth frame, where Brett Baty took Williams yard for a solo home run and a Francisco Lindor double plated Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Alvarez. Through five starts, Williams owns a 1-1 record and a 4.10 ERA. He will likely continue to struggle to maintain fantasy value as the fourth option on one of MLB's worst rosters.

Another solid outing Williams did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk over six innings against the Twins. He struck out four.

Impact Williams posted a season-high six innings Friday. He has pitched at least five innings in all four of his starts, as his move to Washington's rotation has started well. The 30-year-old has a 3.38 ERA to begin the season. Williams has posted a 13:4 K:BB ratio in 21.1 innings. He is tentatively scheduled to face the Mets in his next start.

APRIL 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Solid vs. Guardians Williams gave up one earned run on four hits and two walks while striking out two in five innings Friday against the Guardians. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Of all places, Williams' best statistical start of the season was his start last week in Coors Field, where he struck out a season-high four and picked up his lone win. Wins will be hard to come by pitching for the Nationals and he lacks the strikeout punch to be an appealing streamer on a bad team.

Nabs first win as Nat Williams (1-1) earned the win over Colorado on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out four batters.

Impact Williams kept Colorado off the scoreboard until the fifth inning and departed in the sixth with a four-run lead. Though Colorado eventually made it close, the Nationals held on to give Williams his first win with the team. The right-hander has allowed five earned runs over 10.1 innings while posting a 7:1 K:BB. His next start is tentatively lined up to come at home against Cleveland.

Impact Williams fell behind early, serving up a two-run home run to Luke Raley in the first inning. By the time he departed, Washington trailed 4-0, and the Nationals didn't score their first run until the seventh. Williams pitched fairly well for the Mets in a swingman role last year, posting a 3.21 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 89.2 innings. However, his career 4.27 ERA and 7.4 K/9 don't invoke much excitement about his fantasy prospects as a full-time starter this season.

Lined up as No. 4 starter Williams will start the Nationals' fourth regular-season game next Monday against the Rays, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact He'll follow Patrick Corbin, Josiah Gray and MacKenzie Gore in the Nats' season-opening starting rotation. Williams signed a two-year, $13 million contract with Washington over the winter after posting a steady 3.21 ERA and 84:23 K:BB across 89.2 innings (nine starts, 21 relief appearances) last year for the Mets. He could carry fantasy streaming appeal in the right matchups.

Stumbles against Marlins Williams gave up seven runs on 10 hits and three walks over 4.2 innings in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins. He struck out four.

Impact The veteran right-hander came into the weekend having allowed only three runs across three spring starts without having walked a batter, but little was working for Williams in this outing. After posting a 4.19 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 6.8 K/9 over nine starts for the Mets last year among his 30 appearances, the 30-year-old is expected to fill a back-end role in the Nationals' rotation in 2023, but his fantasy utility will likely be limited to NL-only formats, or usage as an occasional streaming option.
