Cody Bellinger, 28, was just starting to get going this season after his late start to the year. He was in the middle of an eight-game hitting streak but will now head to the injured list for what should be a long stay.
Bellinger ran into the outfield wall trying to rob a hit on Tuesday at Wrigley Field. Unfortunately, that wall is brick, and Bellinger got the worse end of it.
Bellinger was slashing .226/.320/.440 this year with five home runs and 17 RBIs. He was coming off a 2023 season where he won the National League Comeback Player of the Year award.
Bellinger signed a three-year, $80 million deal with the Cubs, with the flexibility to opt out after both years.
