3. Josh Bell

There has been the occasional blip of prodcution, but Josh Bell has been a massive disappointment. Bell has not produced up to the level that many hoped and that is concerning. Like Zunino, Bell was expected to provide some pop to the lineup and it simply has not come consistently enough. It certainly seems that Bell is not a viable option to play every day and that is a big time miss by Cleveland's front office considering the player-friendly contract they signed him to this past offseason. It is hard to imagine a scenario that has Bell turning down his $16.5 million player option for next season when he is a non-factor at the plate more often than not. The Guardians would be wise to just start shopping Bell around to see if anyone will take him and his .695 OPS off their hands, even if they have to eat salary in which to do so.
