00:00So here's what we have seen so far.
00:05We talked about Blake Snell to the Dodgers.
00:07182 mil over a five-year span.
00:11182 million, Jack, for the Dodgers' most bitter rival,
00:15the San Francisco Giants, and a seven-year deal
00:18for the shortstop who spent the last three and a half seasons
00:21in Milwaukee, good city, by the way, Willie Adamas.
00:24The Giants have missed out on a couple of big swings,
00:27perhaps the last few off seasons.
00:30What are they getting in Willie Adamas?
00:32What will he mean for San Francisco
00:34this upcoming MLB campaign?
00:37Yeah, Milwaukee gets cold in February, by the way,
00:39but what's the song lyric?
00:42The coldest summer or the coldest winter
00:44I ever had was a summer in San Francisco.
00:47What they get is one of, if not the best,
00:50left side of the infield in Major League Baseball.
00:52Matt Chapman is awesome, and they put their money
00:55where their mouth was with Matt Chapman.
00:57They extended him at the end of the 2024 regular season.
01:00Chapman's an $150 million player.
01:03Willie Adamas is an $180 million player,
01:06and they have Chapman at third and Adamas at short
01:09for the foreseeable future.
01:10Willie Adamas is the only shortstop
01:12in Major League Baseball with 20 homers and 70 RBIs
01:17in each of the last four seasons.
01:19I think that's a health thing with Corey Seager,
01:22but what that tells you is this guy is A,
01:26always on the field, and B, a power threat
01:29and can play a good shortstop.
01:3120 homers from the shortstop position,
01:33and Adamas, like, that's his low-end year.
01:36His top-end year is a 30-homer shortstop
01:39and a good one defensively.
01:41This guy is one of the more underrated players
01:43in Major League Baseball, and I think a lot of that
01:45had to do with him playing in Milwaukee.
01:47A lot of people don't know who this is.
01:49He is an awesome, awesome player,
01:51and the Giants got a lot better by getting Adamas,
01:55and I feel good for the Giants, man.
01:57They moved Buster Posey into that
01:59president of baseball operations role
02:01after they fire Farhan Zayedi.
02:03They missed out on Aaron Judge or Arson Judge.
02:06They miss out on Carlos Correa.
02:09They finally get their guy in Adamas,
02:12and they sold him on being on that left side with Chapman,
02:16and I think it's gonna work, man.
02:17I'm really excited.
