Let me first say I want Adell to be good, you can see the athleticism, he just can't seem to harness it. Adell playing well would be an amazing gift for this team.
But, if this is what Adell looks like "fighting for a job" I sure don't need to see anymore of what he looks like when "he has the job."
Didn't we go through this "give him the position" a couple years ago to start the season? Dude is downright clueless in the field, and he's a headcase in the batters box.
Same.
It's like he doesn't trust his stuff, tries to pitch around batters which results in walks, driving up his pitch count, then gives up crappy droopy basehits that fall in for runs.
He just needs to attack the plate, trust his stuff, let the batters get themselves out, and accept when they inevitably take advantage of his mistakes, which will happen much less often than I think he believes.
