Adam has shown up with a lot of promise and projects to be an above average outfielder in the majors. Up until now though he really hasn’t been given the chance. Currently, he has an extremely low BABIP despite seeing above 4 pitches per plate appearance. He could be a very valuable 4th outfielder to your team.

He has been unbelieveable so far due in large part to his BABIP. With a qERA of 4.23 and a FIP of 3.25 (his ERA is currently 1.99) you can see that at some point he will have to regress. Also he felt a twinge in his surgically repaired hip. Could he keep this up for a while longer, yes. Could it collapse mightily yes.
