Nationals' Will Harris: Suffers setback
Will Harris (pectoral) suffered another setback and will get an MRI to determine the next steps in his recovery, Andrew Golden of the Washington Post reports.He has been dealing with lingering effects from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery performed two summers ago, and at this point, it seems unlikely that Harris will ever get back on a mound for the Washington Nationals. The 38-year-old right-hander is in the final year of a three-year, $24 million contract signed ahead of the 2020 campaign, and he's only been healthy enough to pitch 23.2 innings for Washington during that time.

Nationals' Will Harris: Resumes rehab assignment
Will Harris (pectoral) resumed his rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Rochester, striking out one and working around a hit in a scoreless inning.Harris has been on the shelf all season after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome last summer and a follow-up procedure in the spring, but it's been a groin issue that has most recently sidelined him during his rehab assignment, according to Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com. The right-hander previously started his rehab assignment July 23 and made four appearances before the groin injury kept him out of action for two weeks. Fortunately, Harris looks to have overcome the brief setback, but he'll still likely need to make another appearance or two in the minors before coming off the 60-day injured list.

Nationals' Will Harris: Resumes mound work
Will Harris (pectoral) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.According to Zuckerman, Harris has now thrown off a mound about four or five times since he was first cleared to resume a throwing program in late April. Harris should continue to ramp up the intensity of his side sessions heading into the All-Star break, and he said he feels like he's nearly ready to face hitters. Since signing a three-year, $24 million deal with the Washington Nationals in January 2020, Harris has been limited to 28 appearances, including only eight since the start of the 2021 campaign following thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last summer and pectoral surgery March 31.

Nationals' Will Harris: Nearing throwing program
Will Harris (pectoral) is expected to resume throwing around May 1, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.Harris underwent right pectoral surgery March 31 and began the season on the 60-day injured list. While he won't be eligible to return to the big-league roster any time soon, he'll resume throwing after being shut down for a month. Since the right-hander was also limited during spring training, he'll likely require time to ramp up before he's able to begin a rehab assignment.

Nationals' Will Harris: On 60-day IL after recent procedure
The Washington Nationals placed Will Harris on the 60-day injured list Thursday after he underwent right pectoral surgery March 31, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.After undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last June, Harris received a clean bill of health heading into spring training. However, Harris almost immediately experienced a setback in his recovery from the surgery, as he was shut down about two weeks ago before manager Dave Martinez acknowledged Tuesday that the right-hander recently required another procedure to remove scar tissue that built up in his arm. Harris will be barred from throwing for the next 3-to-4 weeks, and the Nationals' decision to place him on the 60-day IL implies the right-hander will need at least an additional month beyond that before being ready for game action. Since signing a three-year, $24 million deal with Washington ahead of the 2020 season, Harris has pitched just 23.2 innings for the club.

Nationals' Will Harris: Hits snag in recovery
Will Harris said Monday that he's experiencing lingering issues after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last June, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.Harris didn't go into detail regarding what exactly is ailing him, but he hasn't pitched in a Grapefruit League game since March 19. The Washington Nationals gave Harris a clean bill of health heading into spring training, but the setback he's dealing with looks like something that could force him to the injured list to begin the season.

Nationals' Will Harris: Good to go for camp
Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said Sunday that Will Harris (thoracic outlet surgery) is healthy for the start of spring training, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.Harris is one of two Nationals pitchers returning from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery to whom Rizzo gave a clean bill of health for the beginning of big-league camp, with staff ace Stephen Strasburg also getting a good prognosis following his procedure. Given that he'll need to build up for starting duty, Strasburg will presumably be brought along more slowly in camp, but Harris looks like he'll be available early on during the Nationals' Grapefruit League slate. Rizzo noted that Harris has been able to do a normal throwing program during the offseason after his 2021 campaign ended in early June, when he was recommended to undergo the procedure to correct a nerve issue in his hand. During his last healthy season in 2020, Harris served as a setup man for Washington, posting a 3.06 ERA and collecting six holds and a save over 17.2 innings during the pandemic-shortened campaign.

Nationals' Will Harris: Throws on field
Will Harris (ribs) threw on the field ahead of Monday's game against the Phillies, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.This marks the first time Harris has been seen throwing since he underwent thoracic outlet surgery in early June. It's possible he's already done for the season, but the fact that he's at least resumed throwing in some capacity keeps open the possibility that he could return at some point late in the year.
