The Angels optioned Adams to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The move doesn't come as a surprise, as Adams is buried on the Angels' outfield depth chart. He went just 5-for-39 during his brief time in the majors last season.

Adams is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Tigers, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Adams started the last six games and will head to the bench after going 2-for-22 with a run and nine strikeouts. Jared Walsh will man right field and bat cleanup Sunday for the Halos.

The Angels recalled Adams from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Adams was just optioned to the minors Thursday, but the Angels need him again after losing Mickey Moniak (back) to the 10-day injured list. Adams has gone 5-for-32 (.156) through his first 15 major-league games this season, but the 23-year-old stands to receive regular starts down the stretch in the Halos' outfield.

EDGE Analysis
Adams has gone 5-for-32 (.156) with zero extra-base hits and 14 strikeouts through his first 15 major-league games this season. Kyren Paris was also optioned back to Salt Lake on Thursday as Jared Walsh and David Fletcher return to the big-league roster.

Adams will start in left field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll pick up a fourth consecutive start after going 1-for-11 with a run scored in the previous three contests. Despite the recent increase in playing time, Adams could soon be at risk of moving into a bench role if Mickey Moniak (back) is cleared to return to the lineup during this weekend's series versus the Tigers.

The Angels recalled Adams from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Adams had a rough time at the plate during his first MLB stint, going just 2-for-14 with six strikeouts across 10 games. Nonetheless, he'll return to Anaheim to give the Angels another option in the outfield. Davis Daniel was optioned to Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

Adams was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Adams was called up by the Angels in early August, but he had inconsistent playing time and went just 2-for-14 with six strikeouts in 10 games during his first taste of major-league action. Mike Trout (wrist) is closing in on a return from the injured list, so Adams will head back to the minors.

Adams went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and also struggled defensively in Wednesday's loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Adams saw his first action as a major-leaguer, starting in center field and batting ninth against Atlanta. In addition to fanning twice in four plate appearances, the 23-year-old also made two ill-advised throws that allowed a runner to take an extra base and misplayed a line drive off the bat of Michael Harris II that was ruled a double. Adams has a reputation as a good defender, so he'll almost certainly be better in that regard, though he's struggled with making contact throughout his minor-league tenure and may have a hard time overcoming that challenge while up in the majors.

Adams' contract was selected from Triple-A Salt Lake prior to Tuesday's game in Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old outfielder's bat may not be ready for success against big-league pitching, but Adams is a strong defensive center fielder. He slashed .264/.351/.465 with 13 home runs and 37 steals in 89 games at Triple-A, although in the Pacific Coast League that still equates to below-league-average production (93 wRC+). Adams hasn't been a league-average hitter since a nine-game run at High-A in 2019. He had a 27.7 percent strikeout rate at Triple-A and turns 24 in October.
