Willy Adames, the popular shortstop who became the clear second-best player at the position in Milwaukee Brewers history, has signed with the San Francisco Giants, ending his tenure in Milwaukee after three-and-a-half seasons.
Adames and the Giants have agreed to a seven-year, $182 million contract. Since the Brewers extended a qualifying offer to Adames, they will receive a compensation draft pick somewhere around No. 30 in next summer’s draft.
The Brewers compensation pick for Willy Adames signing elsewhere, FWIW, is likely to be around No. 30 in the draft and potentially slightly higher.
