Dodgers Acquire RHP Kendall Williams in Trade for Ross Stripling

The Dodgers officially have one of the two pieces coming back to them in the deal for Ross Stripling. As part of the trade with Toronto, LA was to receive two players to be named later. Kendall Williams is the first part of the transaction.

Williams was ranked as the Blue Jays #13 prospect in their very deep organization. At 6-foot-6 and just 20-years-old, Williams is projected to keep picking up velocity on his fastball. He is also expected to develop a really good curveball, though he also possesses a slider in his repertoire. The Dodgers coaching staff will no doubt have him throwing an off-speed pitch with confidence in a matter of months.
