Review
editThe son of MLB player Clay Bellinger, Bellinger
, don't love the repeat of Bellinger. Could you pipe it so the last name is not used for his dad?- Rephrased with regards to details about the mother — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- What about his mother? Do we have any information about her?
- Her name is Jennifer and she looks like Ann Coulter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- I found her realtor profile on her Twitter bio and linked accordingly (helpfully, she also said she was Cody's mom on that page, just in case anyone thought it was another Jennifer Bellinger!) — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
Draft and minor leagues
edit- Is there any more detail about why he chose Oregon? Was he offered scholarships to other schools?
- "Since joining FieldLevel on July 18, 2012, Cody worked with his coaches to target 0 different schools". Sounds like him... In any case, I looked at Newspapers.com since they tend to be a little better about high school athletes, as well as the Ducks website, and couldn't find anything besides his commitment to Oregon, so I think he kind of went with the first school that scouted him. — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
Bellinger was also the selected designated hitter for the California League postseason All-Star team.[15] He also...
you mention also back-to-back. Any other word we could use?- Rephrased to
Following the regular minor league season
in the second sentence — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- Rephrased to
Los Angeles Dodgers
edit- Why is
first Dodgers rookie
WL to List of Major League Baseball players to hit for the cycle?- Great question. I think it was a compromise because someone kept adding that he hit for the cycle to his career highlights box. Removed, in any case — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- Is there any explanation for why he was benched in the elimination game despite being named MVP?
- Fleshed out with info from here. A slump plus one of Dave Roberts' famous bad choices, trying to platoon every position based on who hits better. — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
Additionally, pitchers began avoiding Bellinger where possible
. This doesn't make sense, the article does not mention pitchers refusing to go up against him. Maybe re-word this so explain that pitchers avoided certain throws against him (which is what I assume you meant).- Rephrased to clarify based on the article that they were mostly throwing balls to avoid him knocking middle-of-the lane fastballs. — GhostRiver 17:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
Other
edit- Can we add a section about his batting style (as seen in articles like Bo Bichette)
- How Cody Bellinger Transformed From a Light-Hitting Prospect Into An Elite Young Power Hitter
- Added. I haven't put anything about his 2021 slump in there because to some degree most of the articles about it have been speculative, and we'll see more during the 2022 season (if it happens, that is). — GhostRiver 17:52, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
