The 22-year-old prospect suffered the injury while legging out a triple during Monday’s game. The Brewers are calling it a very minor injury and are simply taking a cautious approach as to not make it any worse. Williams is tentatively expected to return to game action early next week.

Williams was just acquired from the Mets as part of the Freddy Peralta trade last week. The 22-year-old also has experience at second base and center field and is “pretty comfortable at all three positions now,” but he’ll begin his Brewers career playing shortstop. That means that current starting shortstop Joey Ortiz, who was also acquired for a pending free agent starting pitcher, is on notice. Williams hit .262/.363/.465 with 17 homers and 34 steals between Double- and Triple-A last year and could push for MLB at-bats if he gets off to a strong start in Triple-A.

Williams is just 5-foot-7, but he packs some punch anyway, coming in at .262/.363/.465 with 17 homers and 34 steals between Double- and Triple-A last year. He’s still mostly a shortstop at this point, but he’s logged time in center and at second base, and center might wind up being his best position. He just turned 22 in November, and he probably needs another full year in the minors, but he projects as a regular somewhere, and his speed makes him particularly intriguing as a fantasy prospect.

All three hits ranged from 101-108 mph off the bat. Williams started in center field last night after playing shortstop in his first two games for Syracuse. He was also playing some second base in Double-A. Obviously, he’s going to have a much easier time breaking in with the Mets at one of his alternative positions than he will at short. He’s probably not going to be a factor this year unless maybe Cedric Mullins gets hurt.
