Josh Bell
1B/DH WSH
Bell, 22, is batting .310/.380/.420 with three home runs, 46 RBI and five steals through 77 games for Double-A Altoona.
Could Bell be the next James Loney? At least in terms of hitting prowess, the comparison fits, as Bell's average and OBP are stellar, but his home run total is lacking. Three home runs for a first baseman simply will not cut it. Bell had nine home runs in 2014. It remains to be seen if his power stroke will eventually come around, or if this is just what Bell will be.
