2025 Fantasy Outlook
Williams missed three-plus months of 2024 due to a right elbow flexor strain, but he was surprisingly dominant when healthy for the Nationals with a 2.03 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 59:18 K:BB over 66.2 innings. His average fastball velocity of 88.6 mph was the lowest of his career, but he used the four-seam fastball less and relied more on his sweeper, which helped produce a career-high 22.7 percent strikeout rate. He performed better than expected with a 3.82 xFIP and 3.13 xERA, so some regression is likely even if he pitches similarly in 2025, especially given the small sample size and waning velocity. Williams doesn't offer much strikeout upside and doesn't have a consistent history as a starter, so he seems unlikely to replicate that effectiveness in 2025 as a 33-year-old. He re-signed with Washington on a two-year contract this winter and is a likely bet to begin the season in the rotation, though he could also revert to more of a swingman role, in which he's had past success.

Shuts down Mariners in victory
Williams (3-5) earned the win over Seattle on Wednesday, tossing six scoreless innings during which he allowed three hits and struck out two batters without issuing any walks.
ANALYSIS
Williams was masterful despite notching only five whiffs and two punchouts, as he allowed just three baserunners, two of which reached in the third inning. The right-hander probably could have gone deeper -- he tossed a mere 77 pitches (54 strikes) -- but manager Dave Martinez chose to go to the bullpen after six innings with the Nationals comfortably ahead by six runs. This was the first quality start of the season for Williams, who has had a rough campaign with a 5.69 ERA and 1.45 WHIP through 55.1 frames.

Williams made 30 starts for the Nationals last season, which was just the second time in the 31-year-old's career that he's reached that plateau. It looked like the right-hander was going to be at least passable for the first two months of the season when he held a 3.93 ERA, but a 5.15 FIP was the better indicator of his performance and, sure enough, his ERA climbed to 6.55 the rest of the way (which included a 12.51 ERA in September). Williams is owed $7 million in 2024 and the Nats aren't exactly teeming with starting pitcher options, so he'll probably begin the year in the rotation. However, the odds that he'll end the year still in the rotation wouldn't appear high.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Strong trade candidate
Williams, who is on the 15-day injured list with a right flexor strain, is expected to be a popular trade target for contending teams this summer, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
The veteran right-hander landed on the injured list last week, but prior to that he was one of the better stories of the first half of the season. Williams posted a 5.55 ERA in 30 starts for Washington last year, but in 2024 he has a 2.22 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 47:16 K:BB across 56.2 innings. The 32-year-old is set to become a free agent after the season and could be a strong trade rental for contending teams, assuming he doesn't spend too long on the shelf.
