VIDEO: Angels Top Prospect Jo Adell Gets Sunglasses Stolen by Teammate Mid-Interview
By Adam Weinrib
Los Angeles Angels outfield stud Jo Adell has plenty of big bills in his future, but for now, the top prospect is stuck in the minor leagues, and he has to make every penny count. Teammate Keynan Middleton made things a bit tougher for Adell on Sunday, smoothly jacking the sunglasses out of his locker while Adell was busy doing his job in front of the media.

Savage.
Middleton was one of the Angels' top relievers in 2017 before succumbing in '18 and completing his lengthy rehab with 7.2 beastly big league innings last year. He's a bit more established than Adell, at this point, but it won't be long before the burly outfielder jumps ahead of him in the pecking order. Therefore, it's best to get your shots in when you still can.
#Angels fans are going to enjoy this glimpse of the future as Jo Adell drove in Brandon Marsh with this RBI single.

Yeah. Adell's swing really is that smooth.
TBD, though, what it will look like when his swag is downgraded 15% without his signature shades. Hopefully, Middleton isn't too tough to track down.
