At Heyman’s Article from Friday Notes he also discussed that Willy Adames could play third base. Even though Adames is the most frequently available stop on the market during the off-season, this would boost the number of potential bidders. Heyman specifically named the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets as good fits for Adames as a third baseman.

Adames could also play third base, so he would also fit in with the Blue Jays and others.

Mets baseball president David Stearns took over for (Willy) Adames for Milwaukee. Could they operate him at third and move Mark Vientos to first base if Pete Alonso leaves?

MLB free agency begins the day after the World Series ends. During the first five days, Milwaukee will have their first opportunity to sign him. If no agreement is reached, he will be able to talk to all other organizations.
