The Giants were comfortable signing Willy Adames to the richest contract in franchise history because they felt he would not only stabilize a premium defensive position but also add an impact bat to their lineup.

Adames set the tone on the first day of full-squad workouts by homering off right-hander Sean Hjelle during live bullpens, then hit two more off Logan Webb the next day. On Wednesday afternoon, Ramos stepped in the box in front of several dozen fans and took his turn to flex.

New Giants shortstop Willy Adames gave San Francisco fans an early highlight on the first full day of spring training on Monday.

In his first live batting practice session of the spring, Adames sent right-hander Sean Hjelle’s second offering over the left-field fence and into the opposing bullpen. It was a glimpse of what the Giants hope Adames can provide over the next seven years.
