Luke Williams Collects Three Hits Versus Dodgers
4 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies rookie second baseman Luke Williams was moved up to sixth in the batting order Wednesday and rewarded manager Joe Girardi with a 3-for-4 night at the Dodgers. Williams was starting at second base in place of Jean Segura (groin) who landed on the injured list. The 25-year-old rookie should see more starts at the keystone moving forward, but he has the ability to play anywhere on the diamond which could help him stick with the team once Segura returns. If he's getting everyday at-bats, he could have value in deeper leagues as he was batting .352 in Triple-A before getting the call to the Big Leagues. He's not a power hitter, but he stole 30 bases in Double-A back in 2019. He's far from a must-add player in fantasy, but his versatility and speed have value in certain fantasy leagues.
