The Los Angeles Dodgers have long been connected to star infielder Willy Adames, but Ken Rosenthal doesn't think the fit is as perfect as it seems.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have long been connected to star Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames. There were even a few rumors during the 2024 season that suggested the two sides could swing a trade to send Adames to Los Angeles.Ultimately, the Brewers held onto him and he's now a free agent, which means the Dodgers can take their shot at him.But Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic doesn't think the fit is as perfect as it seems.
'But Friedman rarely pays sticker price for elite talent, with Yoshinobu Yamamoto standing as a notable exception last offseason, in part because he was turning 25. Lest anyone forget, the Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman contracts all include significant deferrals.'Maybe Rosenthal has a point. The Dodgers are rumored to be in on some of the biggest free agents of the offseason, but maybe Adames isn't one of them. Slotting Betts back in at shortstop works perfectly.
