It all started in the Arizona Fall League for the LA Angels top prospect. The AFL is where prospects go head-to-head against their counterparts, and is one of the best indicators of a prospect’s MLB readiness.
Well, all Jo Adell did in the AFL was slash .273/.351/.444 in 24 games. He had three home runs to go along with eight doubles, showcasing how much of an extra-base hit threat he’ll be in the majors. The ball popped off his bat at an extremely high rate, and his exit velocity was arguably the biggest takeaway from his time in Arizona.
