Some less than encouraging news has emerged about Cody Bellinger’s offseason progress.
The star centerfielder is reportedly still unable to swing a bat following shoulder surgery in November. The surgery, of course, was to repair the damage Bellinger suffered in Game 7 of the NLCS, after an ill-fated celebration with Kiké Hernandez following a pivotal homer off Chris Martin.
