Willy Adames DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double, a walk, and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 10-6 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The 29-year-old launched his fifth home run of the season in the fifth inning and added a double in the eighth. The strong showing raised his OPS to .671, as Adames is now slashing .225/.304/.367 across 43 games this season. He will look to stay hot in an afternoon matchup against Eduardo Rodriguez and the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames has been dropped to the sixth spot in the batting order for Monday's series opener against the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Merrill Kelly at Oracle Park. Adames has hit slightly better in the month of May to the tune of a .244/.311/.439 slash line with two home runs, two doubles, four RBI and seven runs scored in 10 games, but overall the 29-year-old has been a disappointment both offensively and defensively in his first 41 games for the Gigantes. He comes into Monday's contest batting .217 (35-for-161) with four long balls, 19 RBI, 23 runs and two stolen bases in his 182 plate appearances. The good news is he has hit .368 with a 1.084 OPS, two home runs and three RBI in 19 career at-bats against Kelly, so Adames could end up being a nice DFS sleeper on Monday night.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames went 3-for-5 with a double and two home runs in Sunday's 9-3 win over the Colorado Rockies. He scored twice and drove in three while striking out twice. The 25-year-old has been heating up in recent days after starting the season off on the slower side. Adames' homers were both solo shots, accounting for San Francisco's first runs of the game. In his next at-bat, he scorched a double to the gap in right-center, driving in his third run. All three of his knocks were hard-hit balls that exceeded 101.5 MPH. After just four extra-base hits through last Tuesday, the veteran shortstop has recorded five over his previous six games. He's also picked up three multi-hit efforts over that span.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a sac fly in his team's 6-5 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday. He added a single and a walk. San Francisco was trailing 5-4 entering the bottom of the eighth, but was able to force Brewers pitcher Tyler Alexander into long at-bats and eventually scratched out the game-winning run on an Adames sac fly to shallow left -- scoring teammate Christian Koss. He's had trouble getting going at the dish, hitting .202 (21-for-104) with four doubles, one home run, 12 RBI, 13 runs scored, and one steal. The 29-year-old has picked it up as of late, though, registering at least one hit in five of his last six appearances.

San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames went 3-for-7 at the plate with three RBI during their victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday afternoon. Adames would bring in his first run on an RBI double in the fifth inning, which scored LaMonte Wade Jr. Later in the 11th inning, Adames would deliver the winning hit as he knocked a two-run single to right field, which scored Luis Matos and Tyler Fitzgerald. This was a nice outing for Adames as he held a modest .130/.192/.174 slash line with just one extra-base hit across his first six games in the Bay. Last season, the 29-year-old enjoyed a career year in Milwaukee, posting a .251/.331/.462 slash line with 33 doubles, 32 long balls, and an impressive 112 RBI, which was the second-highest total in the NL. Adames will look to stay hot on Saturday, facing Seattle right-hander Bryce Miller.
