Jett Williams had a huge week for Double-A Binghamton, and the Mets’ top prospect has earned Eastern League Player of the Week honors for his hard work.

Williams, 21, slashed .385/.467/.962 with two home runs, three doubles, and two triples for the Rumble Ponies, raising his batting average from .282 to .296 in the process.

Williams, who came into the season ranked by Joe DeMayo as the Mets’ top position player prospect (No 2 overall, trailing only RHP Brandon Sproat), now has a .926 OPS overall in 55 games this season, blasting six home runs to go along with 24 RBI, 38 runs scored, and 18 stolen bases in 22 attempts.

Selected with the No. 14 overall selection in the 2022 MLB Draft, Williams has steadily risen through the Mets’ system, with a promotion to Triple-A Syracuse likely at some point this season. And if he has another week like the one he just registered, that trip to Syracuse could be coming sooner rather than later.
