Bobby Bell was promoted to AA to start the season and he has had a mix of starts, some good, some not so good.  Bell was drafted in the 18th round of the 2008 draft.  Initially Bell was used as a reliever, he had one of the best change-ups in the system and his control was excellent, he didn't walk a batter in that first season.

Belll was converted to a starter mid-way through 2009.  He is working on a curveball which he needs as a third pitch to be effective as a starter.

Here is a shot of Bell pitching in Dunedin this spring.

 

And another one of Bell pitching.

 

Finally, here is a link to video of Bell warming up before an inning in Dunedin.  Note the slingshot action.
