Jett Williams Fantasy Stats

The Milwaukee Brewers reassigned infield prospect Jett Williams to minor-league camp on Monday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. We recently posted that Williams has been putting up video-game numbers in Cactus League play this spring with a .364 batting average, .500 on-base percentage, .636 slugging percentage, and a 1.136 OPS, but apparently it wasn't enough to convince the team's brass that he should start on the big-league roster for Opening Day. It was pretty much a done deal that the 22-year-old would begin the 2026 season at Triple-A Nashville when he missed over two weeks this spring with a left-quadriceps injury. Still, Williams turned heads at the plate during the Cactus League and could make his big-league debut sooner rather than later this year if he continues to swing the bat this well in the minors. The former 14th overall pick in 2022 has intriguing power/speed potential at a premium position after hitting .261/.363/.465 with 17 homers, 52 RBI, and 34 stolen bases in 130 minor-league games in 2025. Williams is Milwaukee's No. 3-ranked prospect, per MLB Pipeline.

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop prospect Jett Williams has produced insane numbers in Cactus League action this year with a .364 batting average, .500 on-base percentage, .636 slugging percentage, and a 1.136 OPS. Williams, 22, came to Milwaukee in the offseason in the trade that sent right-hander Freddy Peralta to the New York Mets. The former 14th overall pick in 2022 missed two-plus weeks this spring with a left-quadriceps injury, but he's fully recovered now. Despite his strong play at the plate in spring training, the expectation is that Williams will begin the 2026 campaign in the minors for more seasoning. The team's No. 3 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, hit .261/.363/.465 with an .828 OPS, 17 home runs, 52 RBI, 91 runs scored, and 34 stolen bases in 130 games with Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse in 2025. He's the No. 51 overall prospect in baseball, and his power/speed upside makes him a must-stash in all dynasty/keeper leagues going into this year.

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams (quadriceps) went 1-for-1 with a double and a walk in his return on Thursday afternoon. Williams has been held out of action for just over two weeks due to this quadriceps injury. However, the young infielder wasted little time making an impact, knocking a double in his first game back. While the missed time will likely prevent him from cracking the Opening Day roster, he should remain in the mix for an early-season promotion. The 22-year-old was the top prospect included in the deal that sent right-handed pitcher Freddy Peralta to the Mets earlier in the winter. Last season, Williams spent most of his time at Double-A, where he held a .281/.390/.477 line with 10 HRs and 32 SBs. He then moved up to Triple-A, where he took a step back, posting a modest .209 AVG. Fantasy managers should expect the young Infielder to begin the regular season at Triple-A and push for a first-half MLB promotion.

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams (quadriceps) is dealing with left quad soreness. He sustained this injury during last week's spring training contest. The young infielder has been held out of action since then. However, Brewers manager Pat Murphy noted that the injury is a "2 out of 10" on the severity scale, which suggests the infielder should be back in action in the coming days. The Brewers acquired Williams from the New York Mets as the headliner piece in the deal that sent right-handed pitcher Freddy Peralta to Queens earlier in the winter. Williams is in the mix to compete for a starting role out of spring training, but will likely be sent to Triple-A to open the 2026 season. Last summer, Williams struggled over his first 36 games at Triple-A, holding a .209/.285/.433 line. He remains a viable early-season stash target in deeper 12+ team formats.

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams is trending towards beginning the 2026 season at Triple-A. While Williams appeared in a good position to crack the Opening Day roster following the trade that sent Caleb Durbin to Boston, the Brewers quickly signed veteran infielder Luis Rengifo, who is now penciled in to be their primary third baseman. While Williams has taken reps at the hot corner alongside his typical position at shortstop in camp, he will likely begin the season with Triple-A, where he can earn everyday at-bats. Williams joined the Brewers earlier in the offseason in the trade that sent right-hander Freddy Peralta to the Mets. Last season, Williams made his Triple-A debut in the New York pipeline and held a .209/.285/.433 line with seven long balls and two swiped bags over a 34-game stint. While he could still carve out a role, managers should expect the top prospect to begin in the season in Nashville.

Milwaukee Brewers infield prospect Jett Williams will get reps at third base in spring training, according to Jack Stern of Brewer Fanatic. Williams, who came over to Milwaukee this offseason in the trade that sent right-hander Freddy Peralta to the New York Mets, will also see work at the 6 this spring. Third base will be his best shot to see playing time in 2026, though, especially after the Brewers traded infielders Caleb Durbin and Andruw Monasterio to the Boston Red Sox on Monday. The 22-year-old has a plus arm despite having never played the hot corner in his professional career. Williams, a former 14th overall pick in 2022, will likely be ticketed for Triple-A Nashville to begin the season after slashing .261/.363/.465 with an .828 OPS, 17 home runs, 52 RBI, 91 runs scored, and 34 steals in 130 games in 2025 with Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse. In addition to shortstop and third base, Williams could be an option in the outfield in his new home. Williams is an under-the-radar prospect worth keeping an eye on.

The Milwaukee Brewers have invited recently acquired infield prospect Jett Williams to big-league spring training. Williams was sent to Milwaukee alongside right-hander Brandon Sproat in the deal that sent right-hander Freddy Peralta to New York. Williams was viewed as the top prospect in the Mets system prior to the trade and now sits as the No. 3 prospect in Milwaukee (on MLB.com), trailing only Jesus Made and Luis Pena. Last season, Williams began the campaign with Double-A, where he posted a strong .281/.390/.477 slash line with 29 doubles, 10 home runs, 32 stolen bases. He was then promoted to Triple-A Syracuse, where he took a slight step back, carrying a lower .209/.285/.433 line with seven long balls across a 34-game stint. Managers should expect Williams to open the season at Triple-A but should be in contention for an early MLB debut, especially if Joey Ortiz continues to struggle in the batter's box.

Milwaukee Brewers prospect Jett Williams "indicated that shortstop will be his focus heading into spring training," according to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Williams came up through the Mets' system as a talented defender capable of playing anywhere up the middle, and while he won't abandon second base or center field reps with his new team, it sounds like shortstop will be the emphasis. The 22-year-old was shipped from New York to Milwaukee in last week's Freddy Peralta trade, and he should make his MLB debut in 2026 after playing 34 games at Triple-A last year. In Syracuse, he slashed .209/.285/.433 with seven homers, a 9.3% walk rate, a 23.2% strikeout rate, and 81 wRC+. The underlying offensive metrics could have been better, but his rare blend of power and speed fit the Brewers' philosophy while offering fantasy appeal.

The Milwaukee Brewers have acquired shortstop prospect Jett Williams from the New York Mets in a four-player trade, according to Jeff Passan of ESPN.com. Starter Freddy Peralta and reliever Tobias Myers are headed to the Mets, while Williams joins starting pitching prospect Brandon Sproat in the package headed back to Milwaukee. Williams is 22 years old and was the Mets' first-round pick in 2022. He spent last season in Double-A and Triple-A, and he struggled adjusting to Triple-A pitching. Through 34 games there, he slashed .209/.285/.433 with a 9.3% walk rate and 23.2% strikeout rate. Still, he finished the year with an overall 136 wRC+ thanks to the success he had at Double-A. The 5-foot-7 infielder finished the 2025 minor league season with 17 home runs and 34 stolen bases. FanGraphs grades Williams' future value at a 50, with speed and power being his best attributes. Although he primarily plays shortstop, he offers defensive versatility with significant experience at second base and in center field. Prior to the trade, FanGraphs projected that he would make his MLB debut in 2026.

New York Mets infield prospect Jett Williams is expected to begin the 2026 regular season with Triple-A Syracuse. Last season, the team's No. 3 prospect according to MLB Pipeline took a step forward at Double-A, earning him a midseason promotion to Triple-A. With Double-A, the former 14th overall pick from the 2022 MLB Draft posted a strong .281/.390/.477 line with 29 doubles, 10 home runs, and 32 stolen bases. However, during his first look at the top level of the minor leagues, Williams took a step back, posting a much lower .209/.285/.433 line across a 34-game stint. He hit seven home runs but swiped only two bases. Additionally, given that the Mets brought in infielder Bo Bichette, Williams will face even more competition for a role early in the season. Managers should expect Williams to begin the season with Syracuse and push for a midseason debut if he can enjoy a productive start.
