Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell announced that center fielder Cody Bellinger is being placed on the injured list.

Cody Bellinger has two fractured ribs on his right side, sidelining another key player for the Chicago Cubs. Bellinger got hurt when he hit the wall in center while trying to make a play on Yainer Diaz's RBI double in the fourth inning of Tuesday night's 7-2 victory over Houston. He was replaced in the field before the Astros batted in the seventh. X-rays were negative, and Bellinger downplayed the injury after the win. But he had a CT scan on Wednesday morning that showed the fractures.

203 with 24 strikeouts in his first 19 games of the season in the minors. Bellinger joined fellow outfielder Seiya Suzuki on the IL, along with left-handers Justin Steele and Drew Smyly , and right-handers Kyle Hendricks and Julian Merryweather . Suzuki has been out since April 14 because of a right oblique strain. Counsell said he has resumed baseball activities and could be ready to go on a rehab assignment shortly after the team returns from its upcoming seven-game road trip.
