Los Angeles Dodgers' Cody Bellinger has hairline fracture in left fibula

A recent scan revealed that Cody Bellinger has a hairline fracture in his left fibula, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday.

Bellinger has been out since April 5 with what was originally diagnosed as a bruised calf. Roberts said the latest development "hasn't really changed the course of his timetable" but didn't want to speculate on a potential return date.

Earlier, Roberts told MLB Network that Bellinger might return in a week or two.

"I can say comfortably that it's not a day-to-day thing," Roberts told reporters before the opener of a weekend series against the division-rival San Diego Padres.
