Cubs' Cody Bellinger: Hits first spring home run
Bellinger went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's Cactus League game against the Diamondbacks.
Bellinger has struggled this spring with a .192 batting average across 26 at-bats, and Thursday's home run was his first in Cactus League action. The outfielder has a starting spot locked down, but with a few down years following his 2019 MVP campaign, fantasy managers will want to see a fast start from Bellinger before feeling too confident about his outlook this season.

Cubs' Cody Bellinger: Back in action Wednesday
Bellinger (illness) will start in center field and bat cleanup in Wednesday's Cactus League game against the Mariners.
Bellinger will return to the lineup for the first time since the spring opener last Saturday after an illness kept him out of commission for a few days. The relative brevity of his absence shouldn't put Bellinger too far behind the Cubs' other healthy position players as he tests out a new swing in exhibition games ahead of Opening Day. Though Bellinger's struggles at the plate during his final three seasons with the Dodgers occasionally put his standing as an everyday player in jeopardy, the Cubs should give him every chance to play on a regular basis -- at least in the early part of the season -- after he inked a one-year, $17.5 million deal in free agency.

Cubs' Cody Bellinger: Held out due to illness
Bellinger has been held out of Cactus League action the last couple of days due to illness, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
It shouldn't more than another day or two before Bellinger is able to return to spring games. He signed a one-year, $17.5 million contract with the Cubs back in December and is slated to open the 2023 campaign as the primary center fielder on the North Side of Chicago.

Cubs' Cody Bellinger: Tweaking batting stance in camp
Bellinger is working on a more athletic, slightly less upright batting stance during spring training, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
Bellinger has always stood fairly tall in the box, but Chicago coaches want him to take a more athletic position, which they hope will help him stay healthy and produce more at the plate. Since winning the National League MVP in 2019, the outfielder has struggled the past three seasons, batting under .240 each year and recording 41 total home runs after blasting 47 long balls during his MVP campaign. Bellinger will have an everyday role with the Cubs and could be a good rebound candidate in 2023.

Cubs' Cody Bellinger: Signing with Cubs
Bellinger agreed to a one-year, $17.5 million contract with the Cubs on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
The 27-year-old wasn't tendered a contract by the Dodgers for 2023, and he was courted by multiple clubs before he ultimately decided to join the Cubs. Bellinger is well removed from the production of his MVP campaign in 2019 and had a .210/.265/.389 slash line in 144 games last season, though his strong defense in center field should keep him in the lineup in 2023 even if he doesn't bounce back at the plate.
