Cody Bellinger Returns On Thursday
2 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger is back in center field and is batting ninth in the lineup on Thursday against Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Corbin Burnes. The Dodgers gave the struggling Bellinger a couple days off this week in Milwaukee to clear his head, but he'll be back in there on Thursday in the series finale. The 27-year-old left-handed slugger has gone just 8-for-40 (.200) this month with three home runs, 11 RBI, five runs scored and 10 strikeouts in 11 games, so fantasy managers may want to keep him planted on their benches until he can turn things around. On the season as a whole, Bellinger is slashing .206/.261/.399 with 16 long balls, 50 RBI, 55 runs scored and 11 stolen bases in 383 at-bats.
