6-foot, 180-pound catching prospect with athletic, durable frame. Worked well behind the plate. Showed quickness in his transfer. Gets rid of the baseball.

Bell worked out primarily as a catcher.  Showed well above average arm strength from behind the plate. 82mph from the crouch was a showcase best and one of the better ones in the class.  Pop time suffered a bit due to footwork but throws were accurate.  Lanky build at 6-foot-1, 170-pounds.  Open stance at the plate.  Toe tapper to get rhythm.  Potential pop in the stick.  Level bat path with good extension.  Strength overtime should help bat speed.
