Adell went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 14-3 victory versus the Rays.
Adell made the most of his lone hit, clobbering a 431-foot, three-run homer to center field in the ninth inning. The veteran outfielder has been all-or-nothing at the plate of late -- over his past 10 games, he's batting just 7-for-40 with 11 strikeouts and no walks but has three homers and two doubles. Adell hit a career-high 37 long balls last season but is well off that pace in 2026 with nine homers through 59 contests.

Angels' Jo Adell: Slugs eighth homer
Rotowire
Adell went 1-for-5 with a solo home run against the Tigers in a 10-6 victory Tuesday.
Adell fanned three times in the contest, but he made his mark with a solo homer to left field in the fourth inning. Punchouts have been a problem for Adell of late -- over his past 12 games, he has a 32.7 percent strikeout rate and has drawn just two walks while batting .133 (6-for-45). Still, Adell's overall 24.0 percent strikeout rate through 55 contests is on pace to be the second-best mark of his career, and he's recorded eight homers, 29 RBI, 19 runs and two stolen bases along with a .245/.293/.392 slash line.

Angels' Jo Adell: Homer, double in loss
Rotowire
Adell went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.
Adell has gone just 10-for-41 (.244) over his last 12 games, but eight of his hits in that span (three homers, five doubles) have gone for extra bases. In terms of pop, he's doing about as well as anyone in the Angels' lineup. The veteran outfielder is hitting .255 with a .701 OPS, seven homers, 28 RBI, 17 runs scored, seven doubles and two stolen bases over 50 contests. That said, he's unlikely to come anywhere near his 37-homer, 98-RBI campaign from 2025.

Angels' Jo Adell: Goes deep twice Sunday
Rotowire
Adell went 3-for-4 with a double and two solo home runs during the Angels' 6-1 win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.
Adell logged a career-high 37 home runs during the 2025 season but was sitting at just four long balls heading into Sunday's contest. He cracked solo home runs off Eric Lauer in both the sixth and ninth frames, marking Adell's first multi-homer game since Aug. 19. Although he's taken a slight step back in the power department, Adell has a .314 OBP in 172 plate appearances, which is slightly higher than last season (.293 across 573 plate appearances).

Angels' Jo Adell: Three-hit effort in win
Rotowire
Adell went 3-for-5 with one RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the Mets.
Adell got the scoring started with a single in the first inning while posting his second three-hit effort of the season. It was a nice bounce back after his modest seven-game hitting streak was snapped Friday, and the 27-year-old has now hit safely in nine of his past 11 games overall. For the year, he's slashing .268/.306/.370 with four home runs, 20 RBI, 14 runs scored and two steals across 147 plate appearances.

Angels' Jo Adell: Launches long ball Saturday
Rotowire
Adell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's loss to the Royals.
Adell accounted for the only Angels run with a solo shot to center field in the fourth inning. The homer also extended the outfielder's streak of producing an RBI to three games. Adell isn't on pace to approach the career-high 37 long balls he hit last season, as he's gone deep a modest four times through 28 contests this year. However, he's shown improvement in other areas, as his .265 batting average is on pace to be a career-best mark, and his 19.8 percent strikeout rate would easily be the lowest of his career.

Angels' Jo Adell: Swats second homer in win
Rotowire
Adell went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-1 win over the Yankees.
Mike Trout, Adell and Jorge Soler went back-to-back-to-back with solo shots in the top of the first inning against left-hander Ryan Weathers. Adell's homer was just his second of the season, as his flyball and hard-hit rates are down to begin the 2026 campaign. Even with the depressed rates, Adell is still getting on base and finding holes in the defense, as he's slashing .315/.351/.411 with the two long balls, eight RBI, eight runs scored, one stolen base and a 1:13 BB:K across 77 plate appearances.

Rotowire
Adell went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 6-2 victory versus Atlanta on Monday.
Adell's biggest headlines this season have come for his home-run robberies -- he had three of them against Seattle on Saturday -- but the slugger was able to hit his first ball over the wall Monday. The homer came in the fifth inning and gave the Angels their final runs of the game. In addition to playing great defense, Adell has opened the campaign doing fine at the plate, as he's slashing .262/.295/.333 with five RBI through 44 plate appearances.

Rotowire
Adell went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Mariners.

Adell has maintained a .243/.303/.509 slash line with 95 RBI, 58 runs scored, 17 doubles and five stolen bases through 139 contests this season.

Angels' Jo Adell: Cleared to start Wednesday
Rotowire
Adell (illness) will start in right field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Twins, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
Adell looks ready to play Wednesday after missing the first two games of the series due to a case of vertigo, which first cropped up during Sunday's 4-3 win over the Athletics. However, because Adell was initially listed in the lineup both of the past two days before being scratched, those planning on using the outfielder in daily moves leagues or DFS contests will want to ensure he's still on track to play as the 4:07 p.m. ET first pitch approaches. The 26-year-old's progression as a power hitter has been a welcome sight in an otherwise underwhelming season for the 68-77 Angels, as Adell will heads into Wednesday's contest with a .243/.303/.507 slash line to go with 35 home runs and 94 RBI across 469 plate appearances.
