Josh Bell

Josh Bell, born on August 14, 1992, in Dallas, Texas, is a professional first baseman for the Cleveland Guardians in Major League Baseball (MLB). A product of the University of Texas at Austin, he was selected by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the second round of the 2011 MLB Draft. Bell made waves with his powerful bat and keen eye at the plate, leading to his MLB debut in 2016. He quickly became known for his ability to hit for both average and power, making him a dual-threat in the batter's box. In 2019, Bell achieved his first All-Star selection after hitting over 30 home runs and recording a significant number of RBIs. His playing style combines raw power with an acute understanding of pitch recognition, allowing him to excel in high-pressure situations. After several successful seasons with the Pirates, he took on a new challenge with the Guardians, aiming to contribute to their offensive ambitions.
