Josh Bell, 25, provided one of the most exciting postseason moments in recent franchise history with a walk-off base hit in Game 4 of the 2015 Governors' Cup Championship. After playing 149 games in Indianapolis in 2015 and 2016, he spent all of last season in Pittsburgh. The first baseman finished third in National League Rookie of the Year voting after hitting .255 with 26 home runs and 90 RBI.
