| Acquired from the Dodgers along with Steve Johnson, Bell was immediately labeled the O’s third baseman of the future. Most believe the Orioles stole Bell from the Dodgers as he shot up most top prospect lists immediately after the trade, but has fallen far since. Switch hitter with above-average power from the left side. Right-handed swing isn’t nearly as smooth. Swing from both sides tend to get loopy. Well above-average arm strength, struggles to make accurate throws at times. Rushes throws and seems uncomfortable at times. Average runner and has slightly above-average range at third. |
