| Summary: Williams brings premium athleticism to every look, starting with double plus speed and the defensive flexibility to slide between shortstop and center field. The actions are quick and clean on the dirt, and his arm strength—up to 98 from the outfield—allows him to make plays from multiple angles. That same athleticism shows in the box, where the right-handed swing is built on elite bat speed and a pull-side lift pattern that produces gap power today with more likely to come. There’s still polish to add, particularly with the stiffness in his load and the reps he lost to injury in 2025, but the raw tools are as loud as almost anyone in the class. Continued refinement in his approach should help the bat catch up to the rest of the package, and if it does, Williams has the traits to make a real jump—impact speed, defensive versatility, and a swing that’s already flashing extra-base impact. | |||||||||||
