Adames rejected the Brewers' one-year, $21.05 million qualifying offer Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. It was an easy decision for Adames, who is set to receive a large, multi-year contract in free agency. Assuming the 29-year-old leaves Milwaukee -- which is fully expected -- the Brewers will receive a draft pick as compensation.

Adames has received offers from the Dodgers and Mets as of Thursday, freelance reporter Mike Rodriguez reports. The Mets offer is for seven years and over $160 million. However, because Francisco Lindor holds the reigns at shortstop, Adames would have to likely play third base. As for the offer from the Dodgers, the details of the proposed contract have not been reported. If he signs with Los Angeles, he will stay at shortstop.

Adames went 3-for-3 with two home runs, five RBI and a walk in Saturday's 15-8 win over the Diamondbacks. Adames had gone just 2-for-17 over his previous five games, but he broke the slump in a big way Saturday. He set a new career high for homers in a season with a solo shot in the fourth inning after blasting a grand slam during the Brewers' seven-run second. The shortstop is up to a .253/.334/.476 slash line over 148 contests, and he's added personal bests in stolen bases (18), RBI (107) and runs scored (87) this year.
