Cody Bellinger Still On Paternity List
2 years agoChicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger remains on the paternity list and out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the San Diego Padres. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Bellinger before Friday's game, but there's a good chance he's activated and plays by then in the series opener against the Miami Marlins. In his first year in Chicago, Bellinger has looked more like his MVP self from 2019 with the Dodgers, as he's hitting .300 (24-for-80) with five doubles, five home runs, 15 RBI, four stolen bases and only 13 strikeouts in 92 plate appearances and 21 games. With Bellinger still away from the team, Nelson Velazquez is getting another start in center field and is hitting seventh against Padres right-hander Seth Lugo on Thursday.
