2023 Fantasy Outlook
Williams spent the past two years as a swingman for the Cubs and Mets, and he was a reliable option with a 3.21 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 84:23 K:BB across 89.2 innings during 2022. The right-hander landed a two-year deal with the Nationals and is poised to move back into the rotation, where he spent the first four seasons of his big-league career. Williams' 22.4 percent strikeout rate over the past two years is solid, albeit unexciting, and it's paired with a 6.9 percent walk rate. He'll turn 31 years old in April and is likely to maintain his low-90s fastball, and a return to the rotation shouldn't affect his arsenal too much given he doesn't heavily rely on his velocity. Williams' fantasy utility is limited, but he could have some value as a depth starter if he's able to replicate his 2022 numbers in a larger sample size. Read Past Outlooks

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.
ANALYSIS
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.

2015
Williams spent the year in the Pirates' rotation eating innings, albeit in an unappetizing manner. He was especially burned by the long ball, surrendering 15 homers in 55.1 innings. The righty tried adjusting his arsenal, throwing fewer 91-mph fastballs while upping his slider, curveball and changeup usage a bit. The results were uninspiring as in addition to gopheritis, Williams' 11.1 K-BB% was 21st lowest among pitchers with at least 50 innings pitched. Pittsburgh released Williams, and at press time, he's still looking for a new home. PNC Park significantly suppresses homers, so Williams will be hard-pressed to get that issue under control elsewhere. With volatile ratios and a low strikeout rate, Williams has minimal fantasy appeal. In today's landscape, the roster spot is better utilized on a dominant reliever.
