Bell is a kickback from Cal Poly SLO and originally out of the Fresno area. A physically well built athlete who has really good actions across the board. He showed a few different tools on the day that should give him a strong chance to return to the D1 level after playing at Cuesta. The first thing that caught my eye was the smooth arm strength he possesses at 3B, it’s an easy arm action with life out of the hand and plenty of carry to profile as at least above average and could be fringe plus arm strength with how clean the throwing motion is. Fielding actions are fluid with good footwork and soft hands, can move laterally with ease and plays downhill confidently. Bell should be at least an above average defender at 3B going forward, but does flash potential to be a plus defender as he continues to polish his tools over there. The swing is quick with a fluid turn of the lower ½ into his upper body and hands while showing lift in his bat path. Shows strength through contact and although didn’t collect a hit you can see average to potential above average hitting ability while flashing average power which could also trend up if he looked to pull the ball in the air consistently (approach shows gap to gap rhythm). I came away highly intrigued by the future possibilities for Bell.

at Fresno Easter Classic - Stands around 6-foot-0 165-pounds by the eyeball test (no height/weight in program) with present tools that will make him a player that will be highly coveted by college recruiters in short order. With plenty of room for physical development, Bell is a rangy shortstop with average present arm strength. He made a very athletic play on a backhand in the hole to initiate an inning-ending double play. He also showed his instincts by covering an open bag at third with a runner rounding second. At the plate he shows the ability to fight off pitches and extend at-bats. Looks comfortable in the box. Aggressively smart baserunner.

vs Rocklin - 6-foot-0, 155-pound-ish with lankiness, had a nice game for SJM. He isn't a physical standout yet in terms of tools and projectability, but starting at SS as a frosh for a defending section champion, while hitting in the 6-spot are good indications that he knows how to play and is mature beyond his years. He was 3-for-3 with a walk and a couple of runs scored, with all the knocks being singles, one of which was well struck for a line drive into short right centerfield. His hands work and he did work to stay in the middle of the field. He's got a ways before his really starts to physically mature but does have a good frame to add some strength in the coming years. Defensively he moved around capably and I'd need to see more games and workouts to fully appreciate what he brings defensively. His best running time was 4.51 on ground ball single, with a 4.75 on a turn. We shall see how he fully develops
