Brewers try to upgrade shortstop by trading for Tampa Bay’s Willy Adames

Luis Urias is struggling mightily both offensively and defensively, and with no other real options available that would improve their ailing offense, the Brewers are taking a chance.

They’re reportedly trading from their bullpen depth to try to address one of their biggest weaknesses, sending Drew Rasmussen and J.P. Feyereisen to Tampa Bay for infielder Willy Adames and right-handed pitcher Trevor Richards.

Right-hander Trevor Richards is going along with shortstop Willy Adames to the Brewers in exchange for relievers Drew Rasmussen and J.P. Feyereisen, sources tell ESPN. That's the full trade.
