Giants Sign Willy Adames to Long-Term Deal

The San Francisco Giants have signed shortstop Willy Adames to a seven-year, $182 million contract, solidifying their infield for the foreseeable future. This move has prompted speculation regarding the potential trading of infielders like Casey Schmitt, David Villar, and Brett Wisely, as the team looks to utilize its depth strategically. President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey has confirmed that breakout rookie Tyler Fitzgerald will transition to second base, enhancing his development after a successful 2024 season. The Giants are also eyeing the possibility of acquiring top free agent pitcher Corbin Burnes, which could further bolster their rotation. General Manager Zack Minasian emphasized the team's openness to trade discussions as they assess their roster's value in the offseason. The Giants are intent on returning to contention after a disappointing playoff record in recent years.
