37 Home Runs. The Power Is Not a Fluke.
Jo Adell hit 37 home runs in 2025. That is not a career year built on luck — it is a player who finally translated elite tools into an elite result, at least in the power department. FanGraphs noted it was a historically low-impact near-40 homer season because of the team context, but that is not on Adell. He hit the ball hard and it went over fences.
The move to corner outfield with Trout back in center field is the right structural call. Adell has always been a better bat than glove — center field defense was burning energy he needs at the plate. In right or left field the defensive standard drops, the at-bats come more freely, and the power plays without reservation.
The real question for 2026 is whether the batting average creeps up to match the power. A .260–.270 hitter with 35 HR is a middle-of-the-order corner outfielder on a contending team. At .251, he is a streaky slugger you work around in lineups. The spring training reps — including a homer off a Padres arm on Feb 25 — suggest he is locked in early.
