Career

Seattle Mariners

Adcock attended Elon University and played college baseball for the Elon Phoenix. The Seattle Mariners selected Adcock in the eighth round, with the 246th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[1] He did not play for the Mariners organization in 2019 due to shoulder impingement syndrome.[2] Adcock also did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]

On April 13, 2021, Adcock underwent Tommy John surgery and missed the entire season as a result.[4] He returned to action in July 2022, and made his professional debut in rehabilitation with the rookie–level Arizona Complex League Mariners. He finished the year with the Single–A Modesto Nuts, logging a 9.00 ERA with 6 strikeouts in 6 appearances.[5]

Adcock was assigned to the High–A Everett AquaSox to begin the 2023 season, and was elevated to the Double–A Arkansas Travelers after 6 scoreless appearances. In 12 games for Arkansas, Adcock registered a 2.08 ERA with 13 strikeouts and 2 saves in 13.0 innings pitched.[6] On June 12, 2023, Adcock was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time following an injury to Penn Murfee.[7] In his MLB debut, Adcock threw two scoreless innings without allowing a base runner.[8] In 12 appearances for Seattle in his rookie campaign, he posted a 3.45 ERA with 11 strikeouts across 15+2⁄3 innings of work.

Adcock was optioned to the Triple–A Tacoma Rainiers to begin the 2024 season.[9] On April 8, 2024, he was designated for assignment by the Mariners.[10]
