Josh Bell's solid effort not enough in narrow loss
by Chris Schommer | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Sat, Aug 31st 8:09am EDT
Josh Bell went 3-for-5 with two runs scored and an RBI in the Diamondbacks' 10-9 loss to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's defeat, Bell's performance was a bright spot, showcasing his ability to contribute significantly in the batting order. This game marks a slight uptick in Bell's batting average, now sitting at .246 for the season, which has been somewhat underwhelming given his past productivity. His consistent contact with the ball, evidenced by his 122 hits and 18 home runs this season, still holds value for fantasy managers, especially in leagues that reward hits and RBI. However, his lack of walks and high strikeout rate continue to be areas of concern. Fantasy managers should view Bell as a potentially valuable but somewhat risky play depending on matchup and league format.
