By the end of the year, Williams had pitched his way to being a September call-up. Beyond that, he performed his way up to the 21st spot on the 2017 rankings by the end of the year. This season, the former fourth round selection of the Milwaukee Brewers sits three positions higher, at 18.
Following an impressive debut year in 2014, Williams found himself sidelined for his encore due to a strained flexor tendon. Then, 2016 saw the righty under the knife for Tommy John surgery. With health finally on his side, the 26 year old will be looking to see Miller Park once again in 2018.
