The Chicago Cubs offense has been poor in 2024, which means they should look for bats before the MLB trade deadline. A player that has excelled in that same time frame is Miami Marlins slugger Josh Bell, who is expected to be a part of a large fire sale ahead of the deadline. Bell has turned what was a nightmare season into being what could be an attractive trade piece for a team that needs another bat in their lineup. On the season, the switch-hitter is slashing .228/.312/.358.
