Rays hurler is MLB Pipeline's No. 4 right-handed-pitching prospect

ST. PETERSBURG -- Willy Adames is knocking on the door, and the highly touted Rays prospect should finally join The Show at some point during the 2018 season. On Wednesday, MLB Pipeline ranked him as the No. 6 shortstop prospect in baseball.

Adames, 22, came to the Rays' organization in the 2014 trade that sent David Price to the Tigers. He's played well at every level, and according to Tampa Bay's farm director, Mitch Lukevics, he has the "it factor."
