What happened: Yahoo Sports identified five teams viewed as the most likely trade partners for outfielder Jo Adell ahead of the MLB trade deadline. The report adds to a run of national coverage linking Adell to contenders in need of outfield help.

Why it matters: Adell has repeatedly surfaced in deadline-fit pieces this month, following a Sports Illustrated list of five top trade fits and a Yahoo proposal sending him to Philadelphia. The Angels have been positioned among the season's most-cited sellers as the deadline approaches.

What to watch: Watch for which of the five teams identified engages the Angels as the deadline nears.
