Williams and Atlanta agreed on a minor-league contract Thursday.

Apr 17Rotowire

Williams elected free agency Wednesday after being designated for assignment by Atlanta on Monday, but he will now return to the organization. The 29-year-old will look to impress with Triple-A Gwinnett in an attempt to potentially earn another shot with the major-league roster later this year.

Williams elected to become a free agent Wednesday, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Apr 15Rotowire

Williams refused an outright assignment after being removed from Atlanta's 40-man roster. He could wind up returning on a minor-league contract, but for now, the utility player is free to sign anywhere.

Atlanta designated Williams for assignment Monday.

Apr 13Rotowire

Williams was added to the active roster this past weekend to take the spot vacated by Michael Harris (paternity), but with Harris now back in tow, Williams has been scrubbed from both the 26-man and 40-man rosters. He will likely clear waivers and stay in the organization as utility depth.

Atlanta selected Williams' contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Apr 11Rotowire

Williams will join the big club to replace Michael Harris, who was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move. Williams posted just a .370 OPS over 34 plate appearances with Atlanta last season but is slashing .241/.313/.414 at Triple-A to begin the year.

Atlanta assigned Williams to minor-league camp Friday.

Mar 20Rotowire

Williams, a 29-year-old utility player, was a long shot to make the big-league roster, and Friday's move confirms he'll open 2026 in the minor leagues. Williams went 6-for-30 (.200) with one homer, one double and a 4:10 BB:K during spring training.
