Josh Bell Back In Nationals Lineup On Saturday
3 years agoWashington Nationals first baseman Josh Bell (oblique) returns to the lineup on Saturday as the team continues a four-game series against the Miami Marlins and right-hander Zach Thompson. Bell missed the first two games of the series with a strained right oblique but was cleared to play Saturday after an MRI showed no major issues. Bell has improved at the plate over the month of June and continues to be solid in deep mixed leagues, hitting .333 with two homers and eight RBI over his last seven games played. The 28-year-old's return also means that Ryan Zimmerman will come back out of the lineup, although the veteran infielder hasn't played enough over the course of the season to carry much fantasy value.
