Nationals Activate Trevor Williams for Return

The Washington Nationals have reactivated pitcher Trevor Williams, who is set to make his first start since May 30 against the Chicago Cubs after recovering from a right flexor muscle strain. Williams had an impressive start to the season with a 5-0 record and a 2.22 ERA before being placed on the injured list. Manager Dave Martinez will monitor Williams' performance closely, emphasizing the importance of maintaining his mechanics. To accommodate his return, the Nationals optioned reliever Zach Brzykcy to Triple-A and transferred Joan Adon to the 60-day injured list. Williams made two successful rehab starts prior to his activation, showcasing his readiness to return to the mound. With his impending free agency, these final games are crucial for Williams to demonstrate his durability and skill to potential suitors.
