Josh Bell Goes Yard, But Marlins Fall Short

by Chase Davis | Marlins Correspondent | Fri, Apr 5th 9:03am EDT

Josh Bell went 1-for-5 with his first homer of the season and two RBI in a defeat against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact:

Bell, who has been struggling to find his rhythm early in the season, managed to connect for his first home run of the year, contributing two RBIs to the Marlins' effort. Bell's power has never been in question, but he has struggled with putting the ball in the air, as evidenced by his career 50.4% ground ball rate. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Bell's performance in the coming games, as he could become a valuable asset if he continues to tap into his power while improving his launch angle.
