The excitement of the Los Angeles Dodgers fielding a roster with two MVPs in their outfield has been tempered some over the past few days as both Cody Bellinger and Mookie Betts were scratched from a lineup in separate cases.
For Bellinger, he missed two games because of a knot in his back that was speculated to have been the result of taking golf swings at an Albert Pujols charity event. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and Bellinger refuted that notion, and the 2017 National League MVP hit a home run in his return to the lineup.
