In 15 combined outings (14 starts) this year at Double-A and Triple-A, Bello is 10-4 with a 2.33 ERA in 85 innings. He has 114 strikeouts (an average 12.1 per nine innings) and 33 walks (3.5 per nine). He has allowed just 55 hits. He’s 6-foot-1 and 170 pounds – tall and thin, a little like Pedro’s older brother, Ramon – and he is still on the raw side. But there’s a lot there to like. Now I’ll tell you what really makes him different for me: Pedro.
