Adell isn't in the Angels' lineup Thursday versus the Mariners after he was held out of the lineup Wednesday due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
The virus that is keeping Adell out of the lineup is the same one that caused teammate Brandon Drury to sit out 11 days, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reported Wednesday. With Adell set to miss his second straight game, Kevin Pillar is in right field again, batting cleanup.

Adell was held out of Wednesday's lineup because he has a virus, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Fletcher, Adell has the same virus that recently shelved teammate Brandon Drury. The latter sat out 11 days due to the illness, but it's not clear if Adell's symptoms are as severe or if he'll need to miss additional time. Kevin Pillar got a start in right field Wednesday in Adell's absence.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Adell walked and scored a run in the second inning and then crushed a 431-foot home run off Drew Smyly in the fifth. The outfielder is hitting a miserable .185 on the season but the Angels are giving him ample opportunities to figure things out. On the bright side, he has contributed 14 home runs and 10 steals over 269 plate appearances.

Adell went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 5-0 loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Adell's steal was his first since June 8 and his 10th of the season. The outfielder hit just .185 with a 4:20 BB:K over 21 contests between thefts, so he wasn't doing much to give himself an opportunity to make an impact with baserunning. Overall, he's at a .186/.250/.390 slash line with 13 home runs, 36 RBI, 32 runs scored, seven doubles and a triple over 260 plate appearances this year.

Adell went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Tigers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Angels were down 7-1 heading into the ninth frame before mounting a rally that fell just short. Adell brought the team to within one run with his two-out, two-run blast in the inning. The long ball snapped a 15-game homerless drought for the outfielder, and he had struggled mightily during that stretch, slashing .111/.180/.156. Despite the recent cold stretch, Adell has hung onto a near-everyday role, as he's started in right field in six of the Angels' past seven games.

Adell is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Adell looks to be getting some routine maintenance after starting in each the last four games and 12 of the previous 13 contests. Kevin Pillar will patrol right field for the Angels on Wednesday.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Adell recently endured a 3-for-54 stretch over 17 games from May 21 to June 9. He's matched that number of hits over his last two games, going 3-for-8 as he starts to get his bat back on track in Arizona. The outfielder began the season in good form but fell off pace significantly in May, leaving him at a .198/.262/.441 slash line through 195 plate appearances. He's added 12 homers, 30 RBI, 27 runs scored and nine stolen bases this season, all of which are career highs for the 25-year-old.
