Adams isn't in the Angels' lineup for Friday's game against the Rangers, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Adams appeared as a defensive substitute in the eighth inning Thursday, which is a good indication that his knee soreness is no longer an issue. However, he will remain out of the lineup for a seventh consecutive game Friday while Gustavo Campero starts in right field, batting seventh.

It's the fourth straight absence for Adams, who was initially scratched from the lineup Friday due to a knee injury. The specifics of the issue are unclear, and every absence is a missed opportunity for playing time with just a few games left in the 2024 regular season.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Records second steal in loss
Rotowire
Adams went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Thursday's loss to the Astros.
Adams reached on an infield single in his second trip to the plate before going on to swipe his second bag of the campaign. The outfielder has now hit safely in five of his last six games, posting two RBI, two runs and a stolen base over that stretch. On the downside, he's also struck out in all 10 of the games he's played since being called up while drawing only three walks.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Hits first big-league homer
Rotowire
Adams went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Twins.
Adams has gone 3-for-10 with two RBI over three games in the majors this season, all coming since his Sept. 7 call-up. He earned the promotion with a .263/.335/.385 slash line, 28 stolen bases, 10 home runs, 58 RBI and 78 runs scored over 123 games with Triple-A Salt Lake. Adams has made two starts, one against a righty and one against a lefty, so it appears he'll be putting pressure on Mickey Moniak in right field over the remainder of the campaign.

Through 545 plate appearances in Triple-A, Adams has slashed .263/.335/.385 with 10 homers and 58 RBI while also swiping 28 bags. He'll be called upon to help replenish Los Angeles' outfield depth and likely compete for playing time with fellow call-up Bryce Teodosio as Kevin Pillar (thumb) and Jo Adell (oblique) move to the injured list.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Sent down to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Angels optioned Adams to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
The move doesn't come as a surprise, as Adams is buried on the Angels' outfield depth chart. He went just 5-for-39 during his brief time in the majors last season.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Recalled from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Angels recalled Adams from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
Adams was just optioned to the minors Thursday, but the Angels need him again after losing Mickey Moniak (back) to the 10-day injured list. Adams has gone 5-for-32 (.156) through his first 15 major-league games this season, but the 23-year-old stands to receive regular starts down the stretch in the Halos' outfield.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Nabs fourth straight start
Rotowire
Adams will start in left field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
He'll pick up a fourth consecutive start after going 1-for-11 with a run scored in the previous three contests. Despite the recent increase in playing time, Adams could soon be at risk of moving into a bench role if Mickey Moniak (back) is cleared to return to the lineup during this weekend's series versus the Tigers.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Recalled from Salt Lake
Rotowire
The Angels recalled Adams from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
Adams had a rough time at the plate during his first MLB stint, going just 2-for-14 with six strikeouts across 10 games. Nonetheless, he'll return to Anaheim to give the Angels another option in the outfield. Davis Daniel was optioned to Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Reassigned to MiLB camp
Rotowire
The Angels reassigned Adams to minor-league camp Friday.
The 23-year-old outfielder reached Double-A for the first time last season, slashing .249/.326/.359 through 236 plate appearances. He certainly turned some heads this spring with a 1.004 OPS and four steals, but there remains more for Adams to do before he's ready for Triple-A and the majors -- bringing down his 29.7 percent strikeout rate would be a good start.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Part of 60-man roster
Rotowire
Adams will be part of the Angels' 60-man roster.
While seemingly unlikely to grab significant at-bats at the MLB level this season, Adams -- who is not on the 40-man roster -- will still be able to work on his development in what is looking like the absence of a minor-league season. The 20-year-old's highest league level in 2019 was High-A, but he did receive multiple promotions last year and recorded a .720 OPS across three levels.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Sent to Low-A
Rotowire
Adams will open the year with Low-A Burlington, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.
This is a typical assignment for a 19-year-old position player who was taken in the first round of the previous year's draft, but it's noteworthy with Adams because he is still a pretty raw hitter, and this assignment should give him a challenge. Don't panic if he doesn't get off to a great start against Low-A pitchers, but if he were to have a seamless transition, that would be an excellent sign.

Angels' Jordyn Adams: Sidelined with broken jaw
Rotowire
Adams is currently dealing with a broken jaw, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Adams' jaw is wired shut, so it's safe to say he won't be getting into minor-league action for a bit. No timetable for his return has come forth, though he's expected to have the wires removed from his mouth Friday, according to Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com. It's also encouraging that he is able to continue working out while he's sidelined with this injury.
