Remember Jo Adell, that all-everything prospect who arrived with a thud last year, striking out 41.7 percent of the time while the Angels just kept running him out there?
Well, he's back and better than ever!
OK ... so that's not saying much. But his 2021 debut Tuesday in which he went 3 for 4 with a double, a walk and a stolen base was arguably the best of his now 39 games in the majors so far. The only other one in the discussion was a two-homer performance last August.
And it's instructive to point out that as bad as Adell was last year, he was still capable of a game like that. A single game can only tell us so much, after all. Wander Franco looked like he was going to take the league by storm in his first game for the Rays this year. Ditto Jarred Kelenic in his second game for the Mariners. It, uh ... it hasn't turned out that way.
But Tuesday's performance was still exactly what you hoped to see from Adell in his first game back in the big leagues, and of course, every breakout begins with that one big game.
As it turns out, he wasn't the only call-up to impress in his 2021 debut Tuesday ...
