The Nationals released Williamson on Monday, Brittany Ghiroli of The Athletic reports.

After finishing the 2019 season in the Korea Baseball Organization with the Samsung Lions, Williamson returned to North America this spring after signing a minor-league deal with the Nationals. The slugging outfielder was expected to open the campaign at Triple-A Fresno, but the likelihood of the 2020 minor-league season being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic prompted Washington to cut ties with him.
