Chicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger was considered a potential trade chip ahead of the MLB trade deadline at the end of the month, but following a hand injury suffered on a hit by pitch in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Baltimore Orioles, it appears that he may be heading to the injured list.
Bellinger was hit in the hand by a 97-MPH fastball in the top of the seventh inning and was forced to leave the game. According to ESPN's Jesse Rogers, the Cubs are calling up outfielder Alexander Canario from Triple-A Iowa, which could be a sign that Bellinger is heading to the shelf with the injury.
