Cody Bellinger went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Cubs' 5-3 win over the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

His solo shot contributed to the team's success, but his overall season performance remains a mixed bag. With a batting average of just .218 through 20 games and a modest .291 wOBA, Bellinger's power has been evident with four homers, yet his consistency at the plate is lacking. Fantasy managers should view him as a potential source of power, but his high strikeout rate and low BABIP suggest that any significant improvement in batting average may not be forthcoming. Manage expectations accordingly, especially in batting average-sensitive formats.
