Willy the Kid
He’s 29 so I don’t think it fits but I couldn’t resist. He did reach the majors as a 22-year old. And Baseball-Reference lists ‘The Kid’ as his nickname. Regardless, as Zo said in the comments on the previous post, this is something the Giants needed to do. It’s a whopper of a deal by SFG standards–seven years and $182M–but it’s not so much on the breakdown. Major league shortstops cost this much. At $10M per WAR he would have to be an 18-WAR player over the life of the contract. That seems reasonable. He’s a 20+ WAR player over his first seven seasons. His reputation is that of an all-rounder. He’s not great at anything in particular, just good at everything. He’s a ballplayer. A Buster kind of guy.
Adames makes the left side of the Giants infield really strong. He and Matt Chapman will put on a show and create a lot of outs. This moves Tyler Fitzgerald to second base where he will be a better fit.
The Giants have been linked to Corbin Burnes and that would be a good move, too.
