Adames Out, Giants Eye Future Stars | San Francisco Giants News

Willy Adames’ season is likely over after a brutal elbow injury sliding into home plate, sidelining the Giants’ shortstop for weeks and possibly the rest of the year. With postseason hopes dashed, the team is turning its focus to evaluating young prospects in these final games — a chance to see who can step up and lead the charge for the future. Without a natural replacement at shortstop, Christian Koss, Osleivis Basabe, or Shay Whitcomb will fill in, with Koss getting first crack. Meanwhile, Adames might be better off resting fully rather than playing DH, opening up at-bats for younger hitters like Bryce Eldridge as the Giants look ahead.
