Mets No. 2 prospect Jett Williams crashed into the wall in center field during the bottom of the first inning in the Arizona Fall League and was forced to leave the game.
In the bottom of the first inning of Thursday’s Arizona Fall League finale, Williams sprinted to deep left-center to make a catch but collided with the outfield wall. After throwing the ball to the cutoff man, he tossed his glove in the air and collapsed in pain.
Jett was removed the game. He did walk to the dugout near the end. After the inning ended, Jett left the game. He did walk out on his own, but with a bad limp. Hoping it’s not as bad as it looks.The 21-year-old Williams, who recorded just 148 plate appearances across three minor league levels this season, had undergone wrist surgery in June to repair an injury suffered in April. He returned to action in late-August, but his season was marked by missed time.
The Arizona Fall League offers prospects like Williams a chance for further development, especially for those who missed significant time during the regular season. Alongside Williams on the Scottsdale Scorpions are Mets’ No. 3 prospect Drew Gilbert and No. 20 prospect Jacob Reimer. Even veteran infielder Jeff McNeil took some at-bats in the AFL as part of a rehab stint before joining the Mets’ NLCS roster.
