We all have watched the Dodgers’ MVP Cody Bellinger struggle over the last few weeks. He’s been worse than he has been at any other point in 2019.To this point in September, Belli has hit three of his 45 home runs and is hitting .273, a bit lower than his season mark of .305. His numbers, and more importantly to many fans his NL MVP chances, grow bleaker by the day.
That is the perception at least. But has his September really been that bad?
Not by the numbers. While the power is down, he did homer off of the Rays’ best reliever Emilio Pagan last night.
