Cody Bellinger blasts key homer in Cubs' narrow victory
by Chris Schommer | Cubs Correspondent | Sat, Aug 17th 7:11am EDT
Cody Bellinger went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Cubs' 6-5 win over the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact:
The outfielder's two-run shot contributed crucially to the narrow victory, marking his 13th homer of the season. Despite a batting average that won't blow anyone away, Bellinger's power numbers have been a redeeming feature, especially in clutch situations. His .327 wOBA indicates a solid offensive contribution, but his high strikeout rate and low walk rate continue to be areas of concern for fantasy managers. Moving forward, Bellinger remains a viable fantasy option primarily for his power potential, though his inconsistency at the plate may cause some headaches.
