Cody Bellinger Putting Together One of the Most Impressive Seasons of His Career
New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger is slashing .292/.393/.507 with five stolen bases, 28 RBI, five home runs, three triples, 10 doubles, and 25 runs scored through 173 plate appearances. His plate discipline also remains strong, as evidenced by his 13 percent strikeout rate, 14.2 percent walk rate, and 18.1 percent whiff rate. To go along with his surface line numbers, he also has a .299 xBA and .385 xwOBA, suggesting that what he is doing at the plate is not just luck. At 30 years old, batting in the center of this potent Yankees lineup, Bellinger is positioned to have one of the best seasons of his career, even dating back to his 2019 MVP season, where he hit .305 with a 1.035 OPS. The home run numbers may not be pacing compared to that MVP season, but most of his other numbers are. Bellinger remains a must-start in all fantasy formats moving forward, and looks like a steal based on his ADP during draft season.
