Bell went 2-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

He got some revenge against his former squad, taking David Bednar deep in the seventh inning for the game's decisive runs. Bell has yet to put together any kind of hot streak for the Nats but he has shown some signs of life at the plate lately, going 10-for-34 (.294) over his last 10 games with two of his nine homers on the year.

Bell is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Bell's .250/.308/.444 line thus far in June is nothing special, but it's at least better than the .207/.268/.400 line he produced in the first two months of the year. He'll sit in favor of Ryan Zimmerman on Tuesday.

Bell went 1-for-3 with a walk in Monday's victory over the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Bell went 0-for-4 at the dish in Saturday's twin bill, but he managed to walk in the third inning and singled to center in the sixth during Monday's series opener. He's now 9-for-36 with a home run and two RBI in June (12 games).

Bell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Bell typically starts against right-handed pitching, but he'll be on the bench Sunday even with righty Johnny Cueto on the bump for San Francisco. Bell had previously sat out the second half of Saturday's doubleheader when the Giants had a lefty (Conner Menez) lead off a bullpen game, so the first baseman will be sitting for the second game in a row. Ryan Zimmerman gets another start in Bell's stead.

EDGE Analysis

Bell went 0-for-3 in the first game of the day. Ryan Zimmerman will take over at first base in the nightcap.

Bell went 1-for-4 with a home run in Saturday's loss to the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Bell socked a solo shot in the eighth inning off reliever Jose Alvarado, but that would be everything he'd do in a game where the Nationals struggled badly on offense. The slugging first baseman has gone deep eight times this season and has hit safely in four of his last six games -- a span in which he has notched two of his eight long balls.

Bell will sit Thursday against Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Bell finds himself on the bench for the second time in three games and the third time in six contests. His .668 OPS, which is a near match for his .669 OPS from last season, doesn't exactly make a strong case for him earning everyday at-bats. Ryan Zimmerman will start at first base in his absence versus Atlanta lefty Tucker Davidson.

Bell is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Braves, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bell, who's hitting just .103 against lefty pitchers this season, sits against Atlanta's Max Fried. After a hot stretch that lasted nearly two weeks, the switch hitter is just 1-for-14 in his last five games. Ryan Zimmerman fills in at first base Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis
