Juan Bell was the Phils' 1993 opening day shortstop. My recollection was that Juan was let go to immediately to make room for Kevin Stocker, but this wasn't the case. The Phils tried a combination of Mariano Duncan, Kim Batiste and Joe Millette at shortstop for a month before finally deciding to purchase Kevin Stocker from AAA Scranton on July 7th.
