Giants SS Willy Adames linked up with the Warriors' up-and-coming star Brandin Podziemski as the duo made their friendship public. After five years with the Milwaukee Brewers, Adames signed a seven-year, $182 million contract with the SFG this offseason. The contract includes a $22 million signing bonus with no deferred money and a no-trade clause.

Willy Adames boasts over 187K followers on social media and has been highly active on the platform, sharing his initial time in the Bay Area since signing with the Giants.

Adames capped off an amazing season with the Brewers in 2024, which saw him crush 32 home runs, with a batting average of .251, 112 RBIs off 153 hits, and a healthy OPS of .794. He signed the largest contract in SFG history, who envision him as a long-term replacement for Brandon Crawford at the shortstop position.

Like Adames, Brandin Podziemski is also a rising talent for the Golden State Warriors. He was selected as the 19th overall pick by the GS Warriors in the 2023 NBA draft and has been on the ascendancy since making his big league debut during the 2023-24 NBA season.

The future for big league teams looks bright as two searing talents attempt to become the future faces of their respective organizations. Brandin Podziemski is currently playing for the Warriors in the 2024-25 NBA season while Adames will hit the ground running with the Giants in MLB spring training next month.
