Jo Adell Leaves Early With Oblique Irritation
3 months agoLos Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell (oblique) left Friday night's contest early at Globe Life Field against the division-rival Texas Rangers with left-oblique irritation, according to the team. Before being replaced in right field by Kevin Pillar, Adell was hitless in his only at-bat of the contest with a strikeout in the second inning. The fact that the 25-year-old right-handed slugger was pulled immediately doesn't bode well for Adell's chances of returning in short order. And given where we are at in the season with only a few weeks left for the out-of-contention Angels, Adell could very well be shut down for the rest of the 2024 season. The former 10th overall pick in 2017 delivered his first 20-homer season this year while also adding 62 RBI and 15 stolen bases, but he's hitting just over .208 with a .281 and below-average .684 OPS.
