Williams was added to the Yankees' 40-man roster on Thursday.

Analysis:

Williams didn't have a great year in his first full season at Double-A Trenton, slashing just .223/.290/.304. He'll likely play in the minors again in 2015 as the addition to the 40-man roster just serves to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.
