2024 Fantasy Outlook
Weems continues to struggle with his control - he has an 11 percent walk rate for his career - but the 31-year-old has shown enough glimpses over the past two years to earn a role in the Nationals 2024 bullpen. He didn't break camp with Washington last year, but was recalled in June and stuck around through the rest of the season. Though Weems struggled in September - he posted a 6.55 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 11:10 K:BB over 11 innings during the final month - he established career high marks with five wins, seven holds and 60 strikeouts across 54.2 innings. With an upper-90's fastball and effective slider, Weems has the arsenal to be effective in high-leverage, but improving his walk rate will go a long way towards earning a more stable role in the late-innings.

Receives outright assignment
Weems cleared waivers Friday and was assigned to Triple-A Rochester.
ANALYSIS
Unsurprisingly, the 31-year-old Weems went unclaimed after logging a 6.70 ERA across 41.2 innings with the Nationals. Weems will join Rochester for the first time this season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2012
It was a successful debut for Weems in 2020, working his way to a 3.21 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and an 18:7 K:BB across 14 innings. His strikeout rate was also noticeably impressive, sitting at 31% for the year. Weems has several weapons at his disposal, including a fastball that sits around 95 mph, along with a splitter, slider and curveball. He leans primarily on his fastball, a pitch her threw 62.2% of the time in 2020. The 28-year-old could be in a position to earn high-leverage opportunities heading into the 2021 campaign, especially following the departure of the team's top reliever, Liam Hendriks, in free agency, though the makeup and roles within Oakland's bullpen is still very much unknown.
