The Tampa Bay Rays are promoting shortstop prospect Carson Williams to the majors, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan. The Rays haven't yet announced the transaction, nor have they announced any corresponding moves.

Williams is a glove-first shortstop with plus-power (23 Triple-A home runs in 2025) and a strong throwing arm. He also comes equipped with above-average speed (though not nearly as fast as teammate and Rays outfielder Chandler Simpson ), making him a potential future cornerstone in Tampa, albeit one with a higher floor than ceiling.
