Fantasy Impact:

Bell will get a fresh start in Washington D.C. after struggling for the Pirates in 2020. He is one season removed from slashing .277/.367/.364 with 37 homers. If the Nationals are getting the 2019 version of Bell, he could have another monster season in store for fantasy managers in 2021. The 28-year-old is expected to be the Nationals' starting 1B and hit in the middle of the order behind stars Trea Turner and Juan Soto. Bell is a borderline top-10 first baseman in upcoming 2021 fantasy drafts.
