Physical Description: Tall, large frame. Broad Shoulders. Thick, barrel chested; Powerful upper body, has gained significant mass.

Hit: Wide stance; hands at the head; slight crouch with knee bend as he loads up to swing. A small amount of rocking and forth in the batter's box. As he swings, there is a slight front leg lick. Has loft in his swing and can go to all fields. Can get pull-happy. Swings for power. Grade: 45

Power: Drives the ball to all fields. Natural loft power as his swing ideally for power. Ball jumps off bat. Swing plane for power to all fields. His best tool. Grade: 55

Field: Solid average fielder - good defensive habits. Sound defensive actions. Good first step read for a player his size. Reliable fielder. With the added size, right-field is the idea location for him to play. Grade: 50

Arm: Live arm, works right and this was before his elbow surgery. Very good arm strength for the position. Will prevent extra bases with his arm. Grade: 60

Run: Below-average but capable. Enough for the position. Grade: 40

Overall: Adolfo has a power ceiling that is unlimited when healthy. The mass gain has helped him tap into his power. He has one of the strongest arms in the organization and still a treat, post elbow surgery. If he can cut back on his strikeouts, the White Sox will have another power bat in their lineup.
