The San Francisco Giants made a huge splash in free agency this past offseason, signing shortstop Willy Adames to a seven-year, $182 million deal. It was the largest contract in franchise history, with the Giants addressing a major need in their alignment and adding what they hoped was an impact player to an offense that was lacking punch. Adames has not produced at the plate as much as the team had hoped with a .209/.297/.340 slash line, hitting only nine home runs and 11 doubles after launching 32 long balls with 33 doubles last year with the Milwaukee Brewers. On a postiive note, he has returned to being an above-average defender after a down 2024 with the glove and an absymal start to his Giants tenure defensively.
