2024 Player Outlook

2023 Recap: Williams was amazing last season, both in reality and in fantasy. On top of his 1.53 ERA, he saved 36 games, posted an 8-3 record, and had a massive 37.7 percent strikeout rate. He induces a lot of ground balls and whiffs, and you have to love the fact that he allowed just a 61.7 percent contact rate last season. The league average last year for a reliever was 75.3 percent! The dominant right-hander posted a 99th percentile whiff rate, 86th percentile chase rate, and had two pitches (changeup & four-seamer) with a whiff rate of at least 41 percent. 

2024 Outlook: Despite an elevated walk rate, which is really the only knock on him, he has a legitimate case to be the first closer drafted in fantasy baseball this season, and with two elite pitches at his disposal, he could be looking at a fourth-straight season with an ERA of 2.50 or fewer, not to mention a second-straight season with 30+ saves.
