ANAHEIM — A sure sign of the Angels’ outfield depth is that the Pacific Coast League home run leader did not even make his season debut in the major leagues until Thursday.
Adell actually was on the active roster Wednesday after Hunter Renfroe went on the paternity list, but he did not play after his afternoon flight to Long Beach Airport kept him from arriving at the ballpark until game time. Adell is ready to be that next man, but he isn’t expected to get much time during this visit to the major leagues. Renfroe and his wife welcomed a baby girl on Wednesday night, and he is expected to return Saturday.“I think it’s like the me-versus-me thing,” said Adell, who has also shown improvement with his outfield defense. “I’m competing against myself. I’m not trying to size up other players. There are a lot of good players. Good teams have good players.
“I think the big thing is that our approach this year as a team is go out and do what you do best,” Adell said about his time at Salt Lake. “For me, it’s been my power numbers. I have been able to put the ball in the air more consistently this year to this point. So I’m hoping to bring that to the table as a strong suit for me.”“I watched him do his defensive work earlier and he looks great,” Manager Phil Nevin said.
