Cubs OF Cody Bellinger sidelined by two fractured ribs on his right side
CHICAGO (AP) — Cody Bellinger has two fractured ribs on his right side, sidelining another key player for the Chicago Cubs.
Bellinger got hurt when he hit the wall in center while trying to make a play on Yainer Diaz’s RBI double in the fourth inning of Tuesday night’s 7-2 victory over Houston. He was replaced in the field before the Astros batted in the seventh.
X-rays were negative, and Bellinger downplayed the injury after the win. But he had a CT scan on Wednesday morning that showed the fractures.
“He woke up feeling good,” Chicago manager Craig Counsell said. “He was encouraged how he woke up feeling and he was like, ‘I think I kind of dodged something,’ was his words, actually. And unfortunately it just revealed what’s there.”
Counsell didn’t have a timetable for Bellinger’s return.
“The doctors will come up with a plan,” Counsell said before Wednesday’s matchup with the Astros, “and, like everything, he’s got to get symptom-free first and we’ll go from there.”
