Jo Adell Will Have Chance To Make Debut In 2020
4 years agoLos Angeles Angels general manager Billy Eppler said that the team's top prospect and No. 6 overall, outfielder Jo Adell, will have a chance to prove that he is ready to make his MLB debut in 2020. Adell will have around three weeks of summer camp to prove that he deserves a spot on the Opening Day roster. If he's not with the big league squad for at least six days, the Angels will get an extra year before he's eligible for free agency, so that's something to keep in mind. The 21-year-old hit a combined .289/.359/.475 with 10 home runs, 36 RBI, 54 runs and seven stolen bases in 76 games with High-A Inland Empire, Double-A Mobile and Triple-A Salt Lake last year. Adell would've been a lot more attractive in redraft leagues this year had there been a full regular season, but there's still a chance he comes up eventually and sees enough playing time to warrant a roster spot in deeper leagues.
