BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 105
CURRENT ADP: ~121 overall
ANALYSIS: As many as 31 players are projected by Steamer to reach more HRs than Bell next year (32+). I said players, not first basemen. First basemen: six of them, all with ridiculous strikeout projections that come out at an average of 151+ per man, a measly counting walk average of 67... irrisory, that is. For Bell, at least. Josh Bell comes with a projection of 75 BB to go with a paltry 125 K. Yessir, that tasty 0.6 BB/K rate has me drooling. I mean... Bell was too good to be true from Game 1 to Game 144, suppressing Ks and welcoming BBs on a daily basis while keeping up a solid 20 LD% that bested his prior best (not counting 2016 due to the hyper-small sample).
Add more highs in HR/FB (25.5%), monster pull-rates ending at 39% on the year, and a fantastically low 5.7% pop-up rate and Joshie Bell is a dream come true and a top-five 1B-explosion waiting to happen. And you're also telling me Joshi can DH and has no competition for first-bag reps in the Capital D.C.!? Nothing else to say.
