The Nationals addressed their vacancy at first base on Thursday by acquiring switch-hitter Josh Bell from the Pirates. In exchange, Washington sent right-handers Wil Crowe, its No. 3 prospect per MLB Pipeline, and Eddy Yean, its No. 6 prospect, to Pittsburgh.
Glad to see this. We need a hitter like Bell. Nats were a struggling team this past year. Very hard to watch.
