The Los Angeles Dodgers have reportedly made an offer to free agent shortstop Willy Adames, per MLB insider Mike Rodriguez.
Rodriguez reports Adames “has a proposal from the Dodgers.” He also says Adames has a seven-year, $160 million deal on the table from the New York Mets. The Mets, however, want Adames to play third base, as they have Francisco Lindor at shortstop.
Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported this week that Adames “wants to stay at shortstop,” but would be open to moving to a different position “if he gets a strong offer from a team in position to win.”
The Mets, who lost in six games in the National League Championship Series to the Dodgers, seem to check those boxes. However, Adames is in no rush to make a decision on his future.
