Is Devin Williams' Buy-Low Window Closed After Recent Strong Stretch?
New York Mets right-handed closer Devin Williams' numbers still look pretty bad on the surface, as he enters Monday's action with a 5.68 ERA and 1.66 WHIP with 21 strikeouts and six walks in 12 2/3 innings pitched in his first 15 appearances with the Mets. But outside of a four-game stretch from April 15 to April 23, when he allowed eight earned runs on nine hits in two innings for a blown save and a loss, Williams hasn't allowed any runs. In his last six appearances covering 5 2/3 innings pitched, he has allowed just one hit, no runs, no walks, and has struck out eight batters. The 31-year-old two-time All-Star has five saves on the season and has three saves and a win in four outings so far in May. Williams has clearly turned things around in New York of late, potentially closing his buy-low window in fantasy baseball. He's only blown one save, and his rough four-game stretch in April is the reason why his surface stats still look gross. His recent strong performances have quieted any chatter of the Mets potentially making a change in the ninth inning.
