Josh Bell

How do we feel about the acquisition of Josh Bell?

[Cory Engelhardt]

He is a good hitter against right handed pitching, and had a strong year last year. Sounds like a good clubhouse/mentor guy too, which doesn't hurt.

He doesn't add to the pop they said they wanted with adding a right handed hitter, even though he is a switch  hitter. His numbers historically against lefties is below average. 

I hope they still go for a good right  handed hitter with pop. I'd prefer not as a platoon necessarily because I think Bell will DH often.
