FACTS/FLUKES: Bellinger, Peralta, Hosmer, Bumgarner, Musgrove

Will power return for Bellinger? ... Coming off a huge second half of 2017, Cody Bellinger (1B, LA) was a borderline top 30 pick in 2018 drafts. His final line was likely disappointing for his owners, but he still exhibited an attractive power/speed combo, and finished strong, with eight home runs, eight steals, and a hit-rate aided .316 average over his final 192 plate appearances. Now going just inside the top 50 in early NFBC drafts, is he worth investing in for 2019?
