The Washington Nationals have made several roster moves, including activating right-handed pitcher Jordan Weems from the 15-day injured list and recalling shortstop Jose Tena from Triple-A Rochester. To make room for these changes, the team has optioned third baseman Trey Lipscomb and right-hander Joan Adon to Rochester.
Jordan Weems has been out since July 26 due to shin splints. This season, he has a 1-1 record with a 6.59 ERA in 40 relief appearances. Over his career, spanning five seasons with the Oakland Athletics, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Nationals, Weems has a 6-4 record with a 5.23 ERA in 139 relief outings.
Jose Tena, who was acquired from the Cleveland Guardians on July 29 in exchange for outfielder Lane Thomas, has been recalled from Triple-A. Tena, who is 23 years old, has played in 21 MLB games over the past two seasons and has a .200 batting average.

Joan Adon has appeared in six games this season, including one start, and has a 6.48 ERA.
