McGowin was optioned by the Nationals on Thursday but will remain with the team through the end of the day to serve as the 27th man for the doubleheader against the Reds, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Nationals will get an extra man Thursday as they'll be completing a suspended game before moving onto their regularly-scheduled contest. McGowin has bounced on and off the roster throughout the season and will likely continue to do so, as that's often the life for relievers with options.

The Nationals will call up McGowin from Triple-A Rochester ahead of Tuesday's season opener versus Atlanta, Maria Torres of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to general manager Mike Rizzo, the Nationals are expected to be without 11 players Tuesday due to COVID-19 protocols, though not all of those individuals were on track to be included on the Opening Day roster. That said, the Nationals will still need to add several players to the 26-man active roster before Tuesday to compensate for the expected absences. McGowin will help restore some depth in the bullpen for Washington, but he likely won't see much high-leverage work while he's up with the big club.
