Mets' Jett Williams: Completes rehab assignment
Double-A Binghamton activated Jett Williams (wrist) from the 60-day injured list Friday.Williams went four months between his injury and the beginning of his rehab assignment after needing a triangular fibrocartilage complex debridement procedure in his right wrist. The ever-patient shortstop hit .250 with four walks, three strikeouts, two steals and zero extra-base hits in five rehab games. Williams has proven to be an on-base machine (career .417 OBP), as he knows the strike zone very well, but he also has plus-plus speed and good bat speed at the plate, so he could turn into a five-category contributor once he matures and fills out.

Mets' Jett Williams: Kicking off rehab assignment
Jett Williams (wrist) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A St. Lucie on Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.For the first time in four months, Williams will appear in a game after a lengthy recovery from right wrist surgery. He had gotten off to a slow start to the season with Double-A Binghamton prior to getting hurt, batting just .179 with four extra-base hits and two stolen bases over 50 plate appearances, though he drew eight walks while striking out just five times. Given the length of his absence, Williams could remain on the rehab assignment through the weekend before potentially returning from Binghamton's 60-day injured list next week.

Mets' Jett Williams: Receives another cortisone shot
New York Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns revealed Tuesday that Jett Williams has received another cortisone injection in his right wrist, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.Williams was given his first injection in early May, but the shot evidently didn't have the desired effect. If the second injection is also ineffective, it's possible the young shortstop will require surgery, per Stearns. Williams was slashing just .179/.360/.308 for Double-A Binghamton before being placed on the 7-day injured list, though the wrist injury could have played a part in his struggles.

Mets' Jett Williams: Sent to minor-league camp
The New York Mets reassigned Jett Williams to minor-league spring training Sunday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.The 20-year-old has received reps at shortstop and in center field during the first couple weeks of big-league camp, but he'll shift to the minor-league side after the first round of roster cuts. Williams is the Mets' top prospect and should open 2024 at Double-A Binghamton after he split most of last season between the Single-A and High-A levels, where he had an .876 OPS in 410 at-bats.

Mets' Jett Williams: Will get reps in center
Jett Williams will get work in big-league camp at both shortstop and center field, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.With Francisco Lindor signed through 2031, Williams will likely have to move off shortstop when he gets to the majors. The New York Mets also indicated the 20-year-old top prospect would not get reps at second base this spring, so it looks as though center field will be his eventual defensive home. "I don't really care," Williams said Friday. "Whatever gets me to the big leagues the fastest." In his first full professional season after being selected with the 14th overall pick in 2022, Williams slashed .263/.425/.451 in 121 games across three levels last year with 13 homers and 45 steals, finishing the campaign at Double-A Binghamton. He'll likely spend most of 2024 in the high minors, but a late-season debut in the majors would set him up to replace Harrison Bader in center for the Mets in 2025.
