James Marion Asbell (June 22, 1914 – July 6, 1967), nicknamed "Big Train", was an American outfielder in Major League Baseball for the Chicago Cubs.

His career was a brief one, consisting of a single season, the Cubs' World Series year of 1938.

After a college career that included stints at both Tulane and Rice, Asbell signed with the New York Giants.

He committed no errors as a defender, but his offense was subpar, as he batted just .182 (6 for 33) with 2 doubles, 3 RBI, and no stolen bases.
