Fantasy Impact:

Williamson was acquired by the Rays in a three-team trade that sent Brendan Donovan to the Seattle Mariners. He appeared in 85 games with the Mariners in 2025, all at third base, and slashed .253/.294/.310 with one home run in 295 plate appearances. If he makes the 26-man roster, Williamson is expected to serve as a utility player, providing the Rays with valuable infield depth.
