New York Mets prospect Jett Williams injured his ankle running into the outfield wall in the Arizona Fall League’s regular-season finale Thursday.
Mets officials are optimistic that their No. 2-ranked prospect’s sprained right ankle won’t have a significant impact on his offseason, according to MLB.com.
Williams, 21, is a shortstop and outfielder currently playing with the AFL’s Scottsdale Scorpions. The No. 14 overall pick in the 2022 draft is batting .225 with two homers, nine RBIs and seven steals in 21 games this fall.
The injury occurred in the bottom of the first inning as Williams, playing center field, tracked down a leadoff double by Tyler Callihan of the Glendale Desert Dogs. Williams bumped into the fence and fell to the ground after relaying the ball to the cutoff man.
Through his first three seasons in the minors, Williams is batting .252 with 14 homers, 65 RBIs and 56 steals in 164 games. He reached Triple-A Syracuse for a six-game stint in 2024.
