Adell went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Adell was on the bench for consecutive games against Houston over the weekend, but he appears to have settled back into a near-everyday role. He went back-to-back with Mike Ford in the second inning for his seventh long ball of the season, which ended a 2-for-23 slide over the previous eight contests. Adell will draw his fourth start in a row in Wednesday's series finale, manning left field and batting seventh.

Adell will sit Saturday against the Astros, Sarah Valenzuela of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Even in a lost season, the Angels don't seem all that committed to giving Adell the chance to prove himself, as he's now been on the bench for three of the last four games. His .224/.270/.368 slash line in 65 games and his 36.7 percent strikeout rate don't make a great case for regular at-bats, but he's still a 23-year-old who had plenty of prospect pedigree before he made his debut in 2020. Ryan Aguilar will start in left field Saturday.

Adell is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Sarah Valenzuela of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Adell went 4-for-5 with two home runs, three runs scored and three RBI in Friday's 12-0 win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
After lacing a couple singles early, Adell took his production into overdrive with a seventh-inning solo shot off Yusei Kikuchi and a two-run blast in the ninth off emergency hurler Whit Merrifield. Adell snapped an 18-game homer drought with the performance, and the four hits equaled his total from his prior nine games combined. Even with this outburst, the 23-year-old is still only slashing .230/.292/.402 through 31 games since the All-Star break.

Adell is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
After a recent two-game absence due to a thumb injury, Adell started in each of the past four contests and went 2-for-12 with eight strikeouts. Though Magneuris Sierra will pick up the starting nod in left field Tuesday, the non-contending Angels will likely continue to deploy Adell as an everyday player down the stretch with the hope that he can cut down on his strikeouts and emerge as a productive regular in the lineup.

EDGE Analysis

Adell (thumb) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old injured his thumb while striking out during a pinch-hit appearance Monday and will be held out of the lineup for at least one game. Steven Duggar will receive the start in left field Tuesday in Adell's stead.

Angels interim manager Phil Nevin said after Monday's 6-2 loss to the Mariners that Adell is day-to-day after he was hit on the thumb while striking out in his lone plate appearance, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Adell was out of the lineup Monday as part of a planned off day, but the Angels summoned him from the bench with two outs and the bases empty in the bottom of the ninth with the hope he could spark a rally. He ultimately struck out on four pitches and hurt himself in the process, leaving his status murky for Tuesday's contest. If Adell can't go Tuesday, Steven Duggar would likely pick up another start in the outfield in his stead.
