The Angels are in the offseason and one of the team's young pieces, Jo Adell, is looking to get some work in during the offseason in Arizona, but he needs some help.

Adell has flashed a talented bat in the Minor League and has shown some promise in the Majors, having hit 18 home runs in his career already.

The call for help with ground balls had people speculating that Adell may be trying to learn an infield position for more defense utility but Adell quickly assured fans that he is staying in the outfield.

Adell, along with a long of Halos this year, had a banged-up 2023 season only being able to play in 17 games for the club as he dealt with injuries including his oblique injury that kept him out most of the year.

Even with only 17 games played Adell still hit .207 with a .706 OPS along with just over half his hits going for extra bases.

Adell looks to join young stars in the Halos clubhouse like Logan O'Hoppe and Zach Neto as a youth movement seems to be sweeping over the Anaheim ballclub.

Adell once was a top prospect for the Angels being a freak athlete in centerfield displaying incredible speed and power. However, due to future Hall of Famer Mike Trout occupying the centerfield position, Adell struggled to stay in the Major Leagues as his bat was not translating from the Minors.

Now going into 2024, being able to play any position in the outfield and still only being 24, Adell looks to take a big step this offseason and hit the ground running as he looks to remind people of why he was such a highly touted prospect.
