CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - AUGUST 30: Cody Bellinger #24 of the Chicago Cubs celebrates a go-ahead RBI single during the eighth inning against the Milwaukee Brewers at Wrigley Field on August 30, 2023 in Chicago, Illinois.

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Cubs’ Cody Bellinger got that Comeback Player of the Year thing out of the way in 2023. Now all he has to do is move up from 10th in the National League MVP standings and make a real run at winning the award in 2024. Easy, right?

Right fielder Seiya Suzuki merely needs to take what he did last August and September, when he tore the cover off the ball, and apply it over a full season.
