Willy Adames, a 29-year-old Dominican shortstop, is a highly sought-after free agent despite concerns over a recent decline in his defensive performance.
Adames notably had a strong defensive record with a +8 in Defensive Runs Saved in 2023, but experienced a significant decline to -16 in 2024.
Despite being rumored targets for numerous high-profile teams, concerns about expensive shortstop contracts failing in recent years create hesitation around signing Adames.
As the market for shortstops evolves, teams are wary of high-cost acquisitions due to past experiences with players like Trevor Story and Dansby Swanson.
