Jett Williams Fantasy Stats

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.

New York Mets infield prospect Jett Williams was able to snap his 12-game power skid on Thursday evening, during their contest against Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. In this contest, the top-ranked prospect in the system according to MLB.com went 2-for-5 with a home run. During his 12-game power skid, Williams held a modest .200/.259/.280 line with a low .539 OPS. Since joining Triple-A Syracuse, Williams has shown some growing pains, holding an overall .206/.254/.365 line. Earlier in the campaign, Williams looked quite comfortable at Double-A, posting an elite .281/.390/.477 slash line with 29 doubles, 10 home runs, and 32 stolen bases. If Williams can continue to turn the corner, he could be in the mix to join the Mets in their postseason run.

New York Mets shortstop prospect Jett Williams went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in his second game since being promoted to Triple-A. Williams earned a promotion to Triple-A Syracuse after hitting .281/.390/.477 with 10 homers and 32 stolen bases in 421 plate appearances at Double-A. He showed a patient approach with a 14.7% walk rate, which allowed him to maximize his speed on the basepaths. The speedy shortstop is one of the smaller players in baseball at 5'7", 175 pounds, but popped 13 homers across multiple levels in 2023 and has double-digits this season. The power upside may not be super high, and there are some concerns with the hit tool, but he has plenty of speed.

New York Mets infield prospect Jett Williams is set to be promoted to Triple-A Syracuse. Williams is considered their top-ranked prospect in the system on MLB Pipeline. The former 14th overall pick from the 2022 MLB Draft has spent the entire campaign at Double-A. Through 96 total games, Williams has enjoyed a very productive season, posting a .281/.390/.477 slash line with 29 doubles, 10 home runs, and 32 stolen bases. This was a much-needed bounce-back season for Williams as she struggled across the minor leagues last summer. Through 33 games split between Low-A, Double-A, and Triple-A, Williams held a much-lower .215/.358/.298 line with a low .656 OPS. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on Williams as he could be in the mix to join the Mets for their playoff push if he can find his footing early at Triple-A.

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the New York Mets are not expected to trade top pitching prospects Nolan McLean and Jonah Tong, as well as infield prospect Jett Williams, ahead of the trade deadline. While the Mets are expected to be active as they look to strengthen their roster in preparation for another deep playoff run, their top prospects are currently viewed as a key part of the team's future. McLean was moved up to Triple-A this season and has shown high strikeout upside, tallying 65 through 60 innings. Tong has been one of the most dominant pitchers in the minor leagues this season, posting a 1.94 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP through 78 2/3 innings with Double-A. Williams is viewed as their top hitting prospect and could even be in the mix to move up to Triple-A in the second half.
