Homers twice in nightcap Bell went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three total RBI in a 5-3 win over Cleveland in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader.

Impact Bell now has nine home runs in his last 12 games, including four in five contests since joining the D-Backs. Overall, the 31-year-old first baseman is slashing .241/.306/.420 this season across 469 plate appearances between Arizona and Miami. Bell should continue to see regular at-bats with Christian Walker (oblique) likely sidelined until late August.

Makes splashy debut Bell started at first base, batted fourth and went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Friday's 9-8 win over Pittsburgh.

Impact Bell, who made his debut for the Diamondbacks, homered in his first plate appearance as part of a five-run first inning. He later tied the game at 7-7 with a solo shot in the seventh. Bell was acquired Tuesday immediately after the Diamondbacks learned starting first baseman Christian Walker (oblique) would miss an estimated three weeks.

Acquired by Arizona The Diamondbacks acquired Bell from the Marlins on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact The acquisition of Bell would seem to indicate that the Diamondbacks expect to be without everyday first baseman Christian Walker for a while after Walker suffered an oblique injury in Monday's 9-8 win over the Nationals. While Bell has posted a mediocre .699 OPS on the season, he's been sizzling at the plate of late with six home runs over his last 12 contests. The Marlins will cover approximately $3.25 million of the $5.5 million remaining on Bell's $16.5 million salary for 2024 as part of the trade, per Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic.

Being placed on waivers The Marlins are placing Bell on waivers Sunday, Robert Murray of FanSided.comreports.

Impact Bell remains in the lineup at first base for Sunday's contest against the Brewers, so it doesn't appear he'll be going anywhere quite yet. The Marlins may simply be gauging interest in the veteran slugger, who has posted a .239/.303/.396 slash line with 14 homers in 103 games this year. Bell has shown signs of life at the plate recently and has homered in four consecutive games and has multiple hits in five straight. A $16.5 million salary for this season remains a major hurdle to the 31-year-old being moved, either via trade or waivers.
