Al Bell  
Starting Pitcher | Free Agents

Pitching
The Free Agents hope he can work on his control a little bit. Every once and a while one slips away from him and either ends up at the backstop or in the right field bleachers. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Bell, and that's saying a lot. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders. It's hard to explain but Al Bell plays much better on the road then he does at home.

Defense & Hitting
Bell is nothing special in the field. He doesn't hold runners very close, which gives his catcher a bit of a workout. Bell is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Bell has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Free Agents have been known to use Bell as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2014 Outlook
But if you ask me, I'll pass on Bell.
