Angels Reassign Jordyn Adams, Others To Minor League Camp
The Los Angeles Angels have reassigned two of the team's top five prospects, outfielder Jordyn Adams and shortstop Jeremiah Jackson, to minor league camp. Also headed to minor league camp are Davis Daniel, Denny Brady, Jack Kruger, Keinner Pina, Harrison Wenson, Brennan Lund and Livan Soto. The 21-year-old Adams is the team's No. 3 prospect. He had a rough spring, going just 1-for-13 with a home run and seven strikeouts. Jackson, who is 20 years old and the team's No. 5 prospect, went hitless in five at-bats.
Los Angeles Angels outfield prospect Jordyn Adams broke out of his 0-for-5 start to the spring with a three-run home run on Monday. The 21-year-old's dinger came against veteran MLB reliever Brad Boxberger. Adams, the 17th overall pick from the 2018 draft, has yet to play above A-ball. He's mostly known for having blazing speed but started to hit for more power at the club's alternate training site in 2020. If the trend continues, Adams becomes an intriguing power/speed threat but is a step or two behind the club's other top outfield prospects in Jo Adell and Brandon Marsh. He's an intriguing dynasty baseball sleeper to monitor closely in 2021.
