Torii Hunter Jr. surprisingly doesn't look overwhelmed at all so far. Wonder if it clicked for him finally. Considerable upside, sand yes he's a good defender, though not as Daddy's level. I still think he would've made a decent NFL WR. I used to think his frame was too small but seeing the Tyreek Hill types find success (Hunter wasn't as fast but had better hands than most his size) I figure he may have made a decent slot of possession receiver. 

Between him, Jordyn Adams and Brandon Marsh, the Angels farm system has the best receiving corps in MLB.

I don’t give a shit it Adell pimps his homers, good for him nice to see some attitude and swagger. I do hope he can translate it at the big leagues though.

That quote doesn't make sense. 7-10 days is optimistic, but he doesn't think its going to be a month. Hm.

Anyone else notice that Rafael Palmeiro's son, Preston, is playing for the Salt Lake Bees?

[Docwaukee]

We need a little Chick Hearn with the mustard and the hot dog.  

Whatever.  F it.  I just want the guy to do well.

yeah.  mentioned that the other day.  They spelled his name wrong on the first lineup card.

Adell is gonna have to calm that excessive hand motion though.  

[Docwaukee]

Time to embrace that Adell swing with a little Rickey Bobby

SLINGSHOT ENGAGED!!

So..... shake aaaaaaand bake, once Marsh reports to AAA?

[Angelsjunky]

That swing makes me think Adell will never hit much above .250.

He's got bat speed for days.

Hey, if it worked for Gary Sheffield, Barry Bonds and Tatis Jr.....

just way too contrived or scripted for my taste.

the closest on the list is Sheffield.  Bonds and Tatis were/are way more fluid with a steady motion into the hitting position.  And Sheffield was almost a Vlad level freak.  He also had an incredible eye.  Adell isn't any of those guys and major league pitchers will expose that if it continues.
