Outlook Jo Adell
Enigmatic Slugger Looks to Build on Breakout Power Campaign
Jo Adell slots in as the everyday starting right fielder for the Angels, hoping to solidify his place as a long-term fixture in their lineup. At age 27, the former top prospect is entering his physical prime. With several key injuries hitting the Angels' roster early on, Adell has ultimate job security and plenty of opportunities to hit in run-producing spots in the batting order.
Our models project Adell to compile 511 at-bats, yielding 20 home runs, 52 runs, 52 RBI, and six stolen bases. While this represents a step back from his eye-popping 37-homer breakout in 2025, it aligns more closely with his career baseline. Fantasy managers must still account for major batting average risk, as our data projects him to hover around a .231 average with a high strikeout rate.
Drafted around his 166 ADP, Adell remains a classic high-risk, high-reward outfielder. He offers cheap, high-end power upside if he can replicate last year's form, but his floor is incredibly low if his contact issues resurface. He is best drafted as a bench outfielder with explosive bench strength.

Latest News Jo Adell
Outlook Bryce Eldridge
Giants prospect Bryce Eldridge is tearing up big-league pitching during a scorching hot streak.
The Giants' prized prospect is on a phenomenal run, batting .353 with six doubles and a 1.068 OPS over his last 11 games. This scorching stretch has locked him into the primary designated hitter role for San Francisco, providing a massive offensive spark for the fourth-place Giants (24-38) as they navigate key injuries.
While his current production dwarfs our .231 projected season average, his elite power is undeniable, highlighted by a recent 453-foot blast. Eldridge possesses outstanding plate discipline, supported by our projected .391 season OBP, indicating that even when the average cools down, he will remain a highly productive asset.
The Giants have four remaining road games this week, featuring matchups against Milwaukee and Chicago. He faces tough tests in Coleman Crow (3.14 ERA) and Ben Brown (1.92 ERA) before encountering friendlier pitching in Edward Cabrera (4.00 ERA) and Jameson Taillon (5.13 ERA). With his bat fully dialed in, he is a fantastic lineup option. Verdict: Start.
