Adames will start the season as the primary utility infielder off the bench now that Daniel Descalso (hand) will begin the season on the disabled list.

Adames was in the running for the starting shortstop job this spring, but he was relegated to a bench role after Trevor Story thrashed Cactus League pitching. The switch-hitter won't get a ton of playing time as a reserve, but he should be the first player off the bench if a starting infielder needs rest given his ability to play shortstop, second base, and third base.
