Cody Bellinger Fantasy Stats

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) is set to return from the 10-day Injured List on Sunday, according to Chris Kirschner. Bellinger is finally ready to return and will be back in the lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. The left-handed slugger missed a month of action due to a left hamstring strain. The banged-up Yankees' offense could certainly use Bellinger's help right now. This season, Bellinger is slashing .259/.350/.420 with 11 home runs, 53 RBI, and 10 stolen bases across 102 games. He should immediately reclaim the starting gig in left field and should be rostered in all fantasy formats.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) will play in a minor league rehab game on Thursday and could return to the big leagues as soon as Sunday, per the Talkin' Yanks podcast. Bellinger has been sidelined since late July due to a hamstring strain. Across 434 plate appearances before the injury, the 31-year-old slashed .259/.350/.420 with 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 10 stolen bases. Bellinger's power production had tailed off significantly before he went down, as he did not record a single home run across 78 plate appearances in July. The veteran outfielder has also been caught six times in 16 stolen base attempts this season and may not look to run much upon his return from a hamstring ailment. Still, Bellinger should provide balanced production for fantasy managers once healthy. His return will likely lead to reduced playing time and/or a demotion to Triple-A for Yankees outfielder Spencer Jones.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) will start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday, according to Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. Bellinger thinks he will play at least one more game after that, but it is still undetermined. If Bellinger avoids any setbacks with his hamstring, he could rejoin the big-league lineup as early as this weekend during the home series against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays. The 31-year-old left-handed slugger has not been as good in 2026 as he was last year in his first season in the Bronx, but the Yankees will welcome him back with open arms as they look for more offense down the stretch. Bellinger will be returning to a .259/.350/.420 slash line with a .770 OPS, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 10 stolen bases, and 52 runs scored in his 374 at-bats in 2026. The former MVP and three-time All-Star remains rostered in 95% of Yahoo leagues for his power/speed abilities in the outfield.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Sunday that outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) is scheduled to play in minor-league rehab games on Tuesday and Thursday, likely with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, and he could be activated from the 10-day injured list by next weekend, according to Erik Boland of Newsday Sports. The Yankees are desperate for more offense, so Bellinger will be a welcome addition to the lineup with both Aaron Judge (rib) and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) still on the shelf. Although the 31-year-old veteran left-handed slugger hasn't been nearly as good as he was in his first year in the Bronx in 2025, Bellinger still can be a difference-maker for fantasy managers down the stretch with his bat, which is why he's still rostered in 95% of Yahoo leagues. When he returns from the IL, Bellinger will be coming back to a .259/.350/.420 slash line with a .770 OPS, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 10 stolen bases, and 52 runs scored in his 102 games and 434 plate appearances. The three-time All-Star belted 29 homers and drove in 98 runs in 152 regular-season games last year with New York. UPDATE: Bellinger will start his rehab assignment on Thursday or Friday.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) was seen running the bases on Wednesday for the second straight day at Yankee Stadium to test out his injured left hamstring, according to Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record. Bellinger hasn't been running at full speed, but he's close. The left-handed slugger has already taken on-field batting practice and done some shagging work in the outfield, and he appears to be nearing a minor-league rehab assignment as he tries to return since landing on the 10-day injured list in late July with a hamstring strain. Barring a setback once Bellinger plays in minor-league games, he could return to the Yankees' starting lineup by late August or early September. The 31-year-old former MVP and three-time All-Star is a lineup regular in the Bronx when he's healthy, and he'll be returning to a .259/.350/.420 slash line with a .770 OPS, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 10 stolen bases. Bellinger's second year with the Yanks certainly has not been as fruitful as his first, when he hit 29 homers, drove in 98 runs, and stole 13 bases in 152 regular-season games.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) took on-field batting practice on Aug. 5, his first time doing so since he was diagnosed with a Grade 2 hamstring strain on July 27, per MLB.com. "I'm feeling good," Bellinger said on Aug. 8. "I feel like I'm right on track." Bellinger was placed on the 10-day injured list on July 26. It's unclear when the 31-year-old veteran will be reinstated to the major-league roster, but he has also been doing running and throwing as he recovers from his hamstring injury. The initial expectation was that the left-handed slugger would miss four to six weeks, so barring a setback as he continues to ramp up, he could return to the Yankees before the end of August. A short minor-league assignment will probably be necessary because of his extended absence. Bellinger's return will be much-anticipated for the Bronx Bombers, even though the three-time All-Star has been a bit of a disappointment in 2026 with a .259/.350/.420 slash line, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 10 steals, and 52 runs scored across his 102 games and 434 plate appearances in his second year with the Yanks.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) continues to make progress and has performed outdoor running drills while also hitting and throwing, manager Aaron Boone said on Aug. 2. Bellinger was diagnosed with a Grade 2 left-hamstring strain on July 27 and is expected to miss four to six weeks of action. He's currently on the 10-day injured list, with an expected return of late August or early September. With Aaron Judge (rib) and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) also still sidelined, the Yankees went out and acquired outfielder Heliot Ramos from the San Francisco Giants on Monday to help give the team some more outfield depth as they push for a playoff spot down the stretch. Even though the 31-year-old Bellinger has a ways to go before returning to the big-league roster, he should be stashed in an IL spot in all fantasy leagues. The former MVP and three-time All-Star was slashing .259/.350/.420 with a .770 OPS, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 52 runs, and 10 stolen bases in his 374 at-bats in 2026 before injuring his hamstring.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 strained left hamstring and is expected to miss four to six weeks, manager Aaron Boone told Brendan Kuty of The Athletic. Bellinger injured his hamstring in Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies and was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday. The 31-year-old former MVP and three-time All-Star won't be back anytime soon, but he's stash-worthy in all fantasy leagues until he fully recovers. The Yankees still have outfielders Aaron Judge (ribs) and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) on the IL as well, so rookie outfielder Spencer Jones was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre again on Sunday, and he will see regular playing time against right-handed pitchers in New York's outfield going forward. Bellinger was an All-Star in 2026 for the third time in his career (first with the Yankees) and is currently slashing .259/.350/.420 with a .770 OPS, 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 10 steals across 102 games and 434 plate appearances.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) will undergo an MRI on his left hamstring Monday after returning to New York, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Bellinger felt the injury while running out an eighth-inning double in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. He said the hamstring remained tight Sunday but had not worsened overnight. The Yankees placed Bellinger on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a left hamstring strain and recalled outfielder Spencer Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Bellinger is batting .259/.350/.420 with 21 doubles, 11 home runs, and 53 RBI through 102 games. Jones moves back into New York's active outfield mix, but Bellinger's recovery timeline will depend on the MRI results.

The New York Yankees have placed outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list due to a left-hamstring strain. Bellinger suffered the injury during New York's win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday. The 31-year-old said after the game that he did not believe the injury to be too serious, but it will evidently keep him out for at least the next 10 days. Across 434 plate appearances in 2026, Bellinger is hitting .259/.350/.420 with 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 10 stolen bases. The Yankees are now down both starting corner outfielders in Bellinger and Aaron Judge (ribs), as well as designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (calf). Yankees outfield prospect Spencer Jones was called up to replace Bellinger on the team's active roster and will likely see an extended run of regular playing time in the Bronx.
