- In this video I discuss the incredible resurgence of Cody Bellinger. A career that saw a 23 year old MVP with the Dodgers become MLB’s worst player just 2 years later has bounced back with the Cubs…

Will Bellinger lead to the Cubs to the postseason?
The Cubs are so streaky. They can play well enough to sweep anyone out of the playoffs one week, then lose 3 or 4 straight series. I hope the Cubs make the playoffs because that’ll be the only way Bellinger will pick up his end of the mutual option next year.
no. Happ and Suzuki arent good enough support. Dansby is streaky too. They leave a shit ton of dudes on base, not enough slug. The rotation is good but too many samey low power sinker ballers. The bullpen is only one tier better than poop.
@@danr154 our bullpen has been fantastic since all star break lol what
@@danr154 the Cubs have great fielding. Especially up the middle. Pitch-to-contact guys are a good fit.
@@danr154not sure what cubs team you’re watching, but this comment shows me you’ve watched like 20 games this year😂.
Bellinger and yelich being good again is great for baseball
My favorite 2 players!

We were so sad to see him leave L.A., but almost everyone out here is happy he's doing so well for the Cubbies. He was/is such a popular player, even when he was not doing well. Such a likable guy.
As a Dodger fan I genuinely believed he was done, and his ceiling was now a GG center fielder w maybe a .750 OPS. But how could I ever count out the MVP. I am so glad Belli is back, I’m about to shed a tear. 😭
I knew he still had it in him. Genuinely think the change of scenery helped too. As sad as it is to see him on another team, I can't help but be glad that he's back.
@@SuperCatacatai pray every night that dodgers will sign him this off season. Ik it won’t happen tho 😔.
He’s such a likable guy, you just can’t not root for this man. I’m a Dodger fan but I had to add MLB TV just to watch Belli/Cubs games. It’s great to see you back again, kid. I’m rooting for you and your Cubs guys all year, just not when you play us. Haha. We’re all rooting for you in Los Angeles!
P.S. And Chicago….lock him up for many years!
His shoulder injury during the 2020 WS also hindered him during 2021. The shoulder injury recovery compunded with the leg injury is a lot to account for the insane drop for 2021 and 2022. Sucks that happened.
Never doubted my boy for a second couldn’t be more happy to see him killin it in Chicago now
Us cubs fans love the guy! Hopefully we can find some middle ground on an extension. We would love to have him for years to come
I hated him for years after we lost to la in 2017, not as a person, just as a player, but i could never imagine 6 years later wed have a completely new core with him as an essential part. Hes prob my fav player now its crazy
Classic change of scenery guy. Glad he’s playing so well.
His eyes: "Whoa I'm a Cubbie?!" So happy to see him crushing.
I'm impressed that you mentioned his broken leg and the bad idea to swing through it in the cage. Dodgers mismanaged his injuries. He also had cracked ribs from Gavin Clutz Lux crashing into him in the outfield. Nice report!
Maybe some ego played into his struggles. He seems very humble now, but he might’ve gotten it into his head that he can swing at anything. He’s been pretty selective this year and only takes those giant hacks of his when he doesn’t have two strikes. Lots of singles with two strikes. Solid, unemotional at-bats since mid-April.
If you were a 22 year old MVP in the major leagues I guarantee your ego would inflate pretty badly and go to your head. Cody had to come back down to earth eventually
@@CowboyKillerBeats Baez hasn’t come down yet. It’s no guarantee. Essentially the same circumstances happen to two different people. Baez is lost in the ego madness forever. Bellinger is not. All the credit in the world goes to Bellinger.
it makes me so happy seeing him doing good. Hes winning MVP in 2024
Bellingers fall was largely due to injuries messing up his swing! Now that he's healthy he's been amazing for the Cubbies! He's hitting 331 with a 939 OPS!
Great video! So crazy how he turned it around with a crazy July
Fantastic video bro. You earned my sub
As a cubs fan I’m just hoping he signs with us the city loves him an you can tell he is having fun out there again just hope they don’t get cheap on me 😅
We were about ready to give up on Bellinger & Yelich, and they have came back and played very well this year. Good to see
Fantasy team savior
I had a feeling he would pull out of his long slump. So thankful the Cubs saw who he was and rolled with him!
I won't say I'm a fan of bellinger, but I'm happy to see him have success in Chicago
Bellinger is one of my favorite players even when he fell and will remain one of my favorites. I hope he can go back to LA
I would really love for you to do one now for Yelich as he is also having a resurgence
This video completely left out the shoulder injury that he suffered in the 2020 NLCS that caused him to have surgery on his right shoulder. As a Dodgers fan, I believe that they gave up on him too early...typical - they gave up on Pedro Martinez and could have tried harder to keep Piazza. Just like those two, I expect Cody to go on to greater things.
LOTS of LAD fans trashed this man and wanted him gone knowing he wasn't healthy. You can toss the manager in there also. The LAD quit on a great player for personal reasons, gave the keys to an avg hitter and worse CF at best to save money on a deal he earned, and knowing he wasn't healthy. Good for the Cubs and their fans, they're gonna love that guy.
Belli 🤟🏾
Reminds me of another cub who saved his career in the 80s in Andre Dawson.
Do one on GARY SANCHEZ.. this one ruled🤟
thats my boy
Time flies when you realize Bellinger is 28 and Yelich is 31!
Gotta hand it to Budinger for smoking his doubters.
i love how he’s randomly in assassins creed valhalla too
thank you for telling me this
Surprised you didn’t mention when he fucked up his shoulder big time in the 2020 World Series. It seemed like he didn’t fully recover from that since he wasn’t able to do his long stride swing until this year again. Could be wrong though
A lot of good hitters fell off temporarily after the sign stealing scandal. I think that's why the original athletic article said it was "part of a much broader issue for Major League Baseball"
Except beli fell off due to an injury and yelich was due to not being able to use the replay station during the Covid year. Sign stealing had nothing to do with those two.
You should make MLB content all year long! Why is Luis Tiant not in Cooperstown?
Things we like to see
Great video but I think you should’ve documented his shoulder injury. IMO that’s way worse than his leg injury and I’m someone who have had the exact same surgery as him. It’s not an easy or quick recovery
I was surprised he didn’t mention that too as he straight up dislocated his shoulder. Which would also affect the mechanics of his swing largely as well.
@@jacksonpowers3947 yeah it was still a really good video but I’m almost positive that’s why he’s still not a Dodger
$17.5 million is a very high risk-high reward bet.
i have a weird feeling the cubs will do some miracle shit this year, (they already are) but i have a feeling we’ll see them in AT LEAST the NLCS with bellinger leading the way.
Unless that offense stays hot for another 60 games it's gonna be a big miracle if they do. They're not as talented as the 2015 team. Their ceiling is the WC.
@@jc24445 the pitchings been a huge reason too, tallion been a top 3 pitcher since july , justin steele has has a sub 3 era since 2022 ASB, alzolay in the pen has been a top 5 closer in the leauge, they are winning games scoring 3,4 runs. they dont need huge offensive explosions
@@javontegreen465 this can only last for so long. Maybe I'm ignorant, but this isn't a scary team
@@jc24445 heres one thing to look at: they have a better run differential than houston, toronto, seattle, san fran, philly, a lot of division leading teams. i see how u can see theres holes but man i like that lineup 1-9 a lot
@@javontegreen465 I'm not crazy on the run differential stat since they play in a cupcake division and it's such a regular season stat
Surprised you didn’t mention the dislocated shoulder injury he got in the postseason in 2020, as that was a pretty big deal and could be in large part as to why he did so so bad in 2021 and 2022, along with that foot injury he got.
Cubs need to sign him to long term contract.
He’s been inconsistent throughout his career though. One year you’ll see Top 5 MVP level stuff, the other you’ll see below average play
@@TJB270let’s forget the shoulder injury and leg injury to completely destroy his swing
Dodgers got cheated out in 17.
I said it
Win a season with more than 60 games.
I think between his leg and shoulder issues he just lost some bat speed and his mechanics weren’t as smooth. Seems like he’s getting back to what he used to do now
They seen the videos and said iight bet
Kris Bryant similar during his beginning years with the Cubs. Won everything there was and then fell off the cart after injury
Got hit in the FACE. Never the same.
Took away some power to gain more contact
He injured his shoulder
And next year … The Rise, Fall, Rise, and Fall Again of Cody Bellinger …
I really hope he resigns with the Cubs
I hate your community poll quizzes because most of the results are too close to be significant at all.
He needed to get away from Dave Roberts.
Dodger hitting coaches (yes plural) are not very good. They get too much credit for revitalizing hitters... like Muncy and Kris Taylor who are forever in the .200 zone.
i hope he continues to do well (should've been a Twin) but a rise, fall, rise and fall of bellinger video would be funny
All the new metrics and names for numbers that have come to baseball over the last few years to much.. just give me batting average home run and RBI that's why the Casual fan doesn't watch baseball make you feel like you're in a math class
Fewer not less. You use fewer when speaking of plural it is fewer not less! Drives me crazy the misuse!
please don't jinx it
lol no.
Mabye it’s the weed he’s been smoking before the game
Don’t forget that stupid celebration when he popped his shoulder out
Yelitch is still better
A lot of bandwagon fans wanted him out now they know they were completely wrong for not knowing baseball I always knew his problems were due to his injuries look at him now. He’ll be wearing a different cap when he goes into The Hall.
