Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames provided the only offense for the Brew Crew in Monday's 3-1 loss versus the division rival Chicago Cubs. Adames went 1-for-2 with two walks on the evening, but his one hit was a solo home run off Porter Hodge in the top of the eighth inning. The upcoming free-agent has been having a strong season as he looks to get paid this offseason and is now hitting .249 with 16 homers, 68 RBI and 12 stolen bases. He remains a secure option for managers up the middle and will look to keep it going on Tuesday when the Brewers square off versus Jameson Taillon.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames went 4-for-4 with a homer and four RBI in Milwaukee's win over Washington on Sunday. The 28-year-old is red-hot in July with a .353 batting average, two homers, and 13 RBI this month. The power-hitting shortstop has 15 homers and 67 RBI this season while hitting .246. He is as good as it gets as a run producer at the shortstop position.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames was 2-for-3 with a solo home run, two RBI and a stolen base during Monday's 3-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. It was the first home run since May 29 for Adames and his first stolen base since May 17. Adames has been productive this season despite those two droughts as he is slashing .248/.328/.433 with 10 homers, 45 RBI, 34 runs and nine stolen bases. He continues to see everyday at-bats in the heart of the Brewers lineup. Adames is not necessarily a fantasy stalwart, but there are certainly worse options to have at shortstop.
Willy Adames Takes Seat For the First Time This Season
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames is not in the starting lineup for the first time this season. As a result, Joey Ortiz will slot in as the shortstop, which opens up the hot corner for Oliver Dunn. Adames has enjoyed a nice bounce-back through the start of this campaign after posting a poor .217/.310/.407 line and is currently riding a much improved .259/.336/.452 slash line. The 28-year-old has only gone hitless once in his past eleven games and has launched two long balls in this span. Both Ortiz and Dunn are solid options in DFS this afternoon as they face White Sox right-hander Nick Nastrini, who is carrying a hefty 9.92 ERA and 2.20 WHIP into Sunday.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames clubbed his ninth homer of the season of the two-run variety while going 2-for-3 with an RBI single and another run scored in a 10-6 win over the Chicago Cubs Wednesday night.

The 28-year-old has been productive out of the cleanup spot this season for the Brewers with his .255 batting average, nine home runs, and 39 RBI. That RBI total is tied for 10th in MLB this season. The hot-hitting shortstop will look to continue his hitting streak with matchups against the Chicago White Sox and Philadelphia Phillies to begin the month of June.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames went 2-for-4 at the plate with a three-run blast that powered the Brewers to victory in the opening game of the series. Adames now has eight home runs on the season with a solid .249/.322/.440 slash line, 35 RBI, and eight stolen bases. The 28-year-old is looking to put a disappointing season behind him and is already on pace to smash last year's totals. Under the hood, Adames has an above-average barrel rate, xSLG, hard-hit rate, and walk rate, which are great signs that he could be in for a big summer. He is expected to continue to serve as the everyday shortstop in Milwaukee and consistently bat in the cleanup spot, setting him up for prime RBI opportunities batting behind Christian Yelich and William Contreras. Adames remains a solid shortstop and middle infield option in all standard leagues.
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Willy Adames has been crushing the ball over the last few days. On Wednesday, Adames went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs and four RBI in the win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Adames now has three homers and eight RBI over the last two games. There was some thought that Adames would hit lower in the batting order this season. However, he has been batting cleanup or higher over the last few weeks. Adames now has 21 RBI over 30 games this season.

The 28-year-old has had a solid offensive start to the season, slashing .270/.369/.441 with four HR, 17 RBI, and four stolen bases in 130 plate appearances. Power has always been in his repertoire, but Adames' fantasy value could jump even higher if he can maintain a decent batting average while peppering in some steals.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames had a huge game in Sunday's Cactus League matchup versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. Adames went 3-for-3 with four runs and three home runs. The homers would knock in all of his six RBI on the day. The 28-year-old was the subject of trade rumors this offseason, but stuck with the Brewers and has had a huge spring with a .317 batting average to accompany six homers and 15 RBI. Adames has seen a dip in his batting average over the past two seasons, but the power remains there with 24 or more homers in the past three seasons. An upcoming free-agent, Adames is motivated to get that big pay day and his hot start in the spring makes him an intriguing bounce back candidate.
Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames went 1-for-3 in Tuesday's Cactus League loss versus the San Francisco Giants. His lone hit was a triple and he also knocked in one run. Adames was a name that was and is rumored to be available as he has an expiring contract after this season. The 28 year-old had an odd 2023 campaign with a weak .217 batting average, but serviceable in the power department with 24 homers and 80 RBI. Adames is a career .251 hitter, so his batting average should improve from last season to go along with his power numbers. He makes for an intriguing late-round, bounce back candidate with an ADP of 189 heading into the season.
