LA Angels’ 2018 first-round draft pick Jordyn Adams‘ jaw is wired shut after breaking it from an outfield collision on August 14.
Adams, who departed the game in the third inning, collided with fellow outfielder Nonie Williams while trying to make a play on the ball for Rookie-level Orem Owlz.
However, while Adams’ jaw remains wired shut, he is hopeful to get the wires off Friday, according to MLB.com’s Maria Guardado.
According to Guardado, Adams has been restricted to a liquid diet since his surgery, causing him to drop 10 pounds in two weeks.
