Cody Bellinger Dodger home run king at age 23
Cody Bellinger passed Adrian Beltre last night to be the first Dodger aged 23 or younger to hit at least 77 home runs. It must be noted that Beltre hit his 76 home runs in roughly twice as many plate appearances as Cody. At age 23, Beltre had been an inconsistent performer for the Dodgers …

Anyone curious how Bellingers first 100 Plate Appearances of 2019 compare to Puig’s in 2013?
Cody Bellinger has now accumulated 100 plate appearances and it is probably the greatest stretch of 100 plate appearances we will ever see from a Dodger. I thought it would be fun to compare this stretch to the first 100 PA of Puig when Puig first showed up, because they are both age 23, they …
The Rubber-Band man is stretching his limits
On the Sunday Night ESPN MLB telecast last night, baseball analyst Jessica Mendoza said that Cody Bellinger was like a rubber-band. It was meant as a compliment as everyone was gaga over how Cody could generate so much power with his swing and follow through. Last night Cody did it all as he hit a …
It is almost like Cody Bellinger wasn’t a valuable player in 2018
Trade talks are heating up and every Dodger outfielder is being discussed in deals to shore up area’s that evidently need shoring up. Even Cody Bellinger’s name has come up, which to me seems ridiculous given he should be as untouchable as Walker Buehler. Sure, Bellinger didn’t put up as insane a season as his …
Cody Bellinger is more than just another LAD ROY
As expected Cody Bellinger unanimously won the National League Rookie of the Year award for 2017. Like Corey Seager he is more than that, he should be a top ten MVP candidate going forward. Given their ages, it can be expected that improvement will follow and that by the time they have played five seasons …
Cody Bellinger Splits
You just don’t see many 1st base / Center Fielders so I thought I’d show his splits. Split G PA HR BA OBP SLG OPS as 1B 89 364 30 .299 .382 .667 1.049 as LF 38 149 7 .189 .275 .394 .669 as CF 4 14 0 .250 .357 .250 .607 as RF 5 …
Bellinger crushes age 21 lists
Quite a few players made their marks on the LAD record books but no one made their mark like Cody Bellinger. Let’s get started: Cody Bellinger hit the most home runs by a Dodger 1st baseman since Eric Karros hit 31 in the year 2000. Cody hit 39 home runs overall, but only 30 as …
