The Mets promoted Williams from Double-A Binghamton to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday, Pat Ragazzo of SI.com reports. Williams will move up to Triple-A after slashing .281/.390/.477 with 10 home runs and 32 stolen bases over 96 games with Binghamton this season. Regarded as one of the Mets' top prospects, the 21-year-old Williams likely won't be in the mix for anything more than a September call-up, but he could emerge as an everyday player for the big club at some point in 2026.

Williams went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, two triples, two RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base for Double-A Binghamton on Thursday. The 21-year-old top prospect has been simply destroying baseballs this week, going 8-for-15 over his last four games, and incredibly all eight knocks -- four doubles, two triples and two homers -- have gone for extra bases. Williams is blocked at his natural shortstop position by Francisco Lindor, but he's seen time at second base and center field this season, and the latter spot might provide his clearest path to a starting job in the majors for the Mets. Williams is slashing .298/.407/.530 for Binghamton with six homers, 18 steals and a 31:42 BB:K in 52 contests, and a promotion to Triple-A Syracuse seems imminent.

Williams (head) has gone 5-for-11 with two home runs, three doubles, three walks, four RBI and four runs in three starts since rejoining the Double-A Binghamton lineup Sunday. He was hit on the helmet by a fastball Friday, but Williams missed just one game before returning to action Sunday and delivered his first career two-homer performance Wednesday. The 21-year-old shortstop has exhibited no ill effects since his return and is slashing .288/.397/.497 with six home runs and 17 stolen bases over 209 plate appearances on the season. A promotion to Triple-A Syracuse may not be too far down the road for Williams.

Williams avoided a concussion after being hit in the helmet by a pitch Friday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. Williams was hit by a fastball that was traveling 98 mph. He will miss a few days but is expected to be back in Double-A Binghamton's lineup quickly.

Williams is hitting .295 with two home runs, six steals, a 9.3 percent walk rate and a 23.3 percent strikeout rate in 21 games for Double-A Binghamton. Williams struggled to stay healthy last year, playing 33 total games and 22 games at Double-A, where he hit .172 with zero home runs. His performance this year is much more in line with expectations, as he is putting his 70-grade speed to use on the bases while showcasing his sneaky pop out of a strong 5-foot-7 frame. Williams has started 15 games at shortstop, two games in center field and one game at second base.
