Rizzo

He gets better the more critical the situation is.

This is kind of silly, but also kinda neat

"Rizzo has slashed .278/.388/.511 overall, a little more than 40 percent better than the average NL hitter after adjusting for the friendly confines. But he’s excelled in crucial spots, batting .313/.438/.553 with men on, .296/.417/.578 with runners in scoring position, and .283/.479/.547 with two outs and runners in scoring position. And because he plays for a postseason team, Rizzo’s clutchness counts"

not sure why it's kind of silly, but anyway Rizzo leads MLB in win prob. added, and Bryant is 3rd; it's a big reason why #weareamazinggood

Cool article in The New Yorker from former Cub teammate Adrian Cardenas. Gives you a glimpse into Rizzo's personality

is it just me or do a lot of guys remember their time on the cubs, however short or long, pretty fondly?

 

there are definitely exceptions...usually guys who busted in huge ways who received a lot of criticism (hundley immediately comes to mind).

 

btw is it just me or was that the first time we've seen any reference to a rizzo gf since he's been on the cubs

HAH! Trying to pretend like Adrian Cardenas is a real person who played for the Cubs. CAN'T FOOL ME.

this is so amazing lmao

 

I found him sitting on a chair, butchering some pop song on a newly purchased keyboard. He wanted to get it just right in order to impress his girlfriend when she visited. “Guy, teach me how to play this,” he said, “I need to learn this song in two days.” I laughed. The keys weren’t weighted, there were no pedals, and the keyboard didn’t have enough octaves to play the song. It was like stepping up to the plate with a Wiffle ball bat. He had never played the piano, but his instincts were good, and he wouldn’t move on to another measure until he could play the previous one. He spent hours practicing, and would occasionally call me, asking about notes and rhythm—how to do it like the pros, essentially. In a couple of days, he even managed to turn out something on the low end of decent.

He literally calls the guy, "Guy". This is kind of how i picture him walking into the clubhouse now

 

"Addison! Hey man, how was your weekend? Now way, thats crazy! Oh hey Guy, do you think you could still play football if you really wanted to? I think you could, too. Georie, como esta, me amigo? Tu zapatos es muy, muy bueno. Hey.. Guy, how you doing? Doing good? Staying loose? Cool man, very cool. KB... funny text this morning, but you didn't have to leave. Javy! Get back here, I told you not to tag me in that instagram!"

This is pretty silly, but I just stumbled on this on Facebook and it made me laugh so I thought I'd share it:

 

 

I took Broadcast Journalism at U of I with the host of the video. He was a really good dude and now his job basically seems like doing fun stuff like this with athletes and celebrities, so good for him.

[treebird]

when i saw the preview for the first video, i instantly remembered the jacket from the garbage time video and was all excited that katie nolan went to u of i and i didn't know it.

 

THANKS FOR NOTHING GET A NEW JACKET TONY

[minnesotacubsfan]

You should ask this "Kate" out on a "date" and just say "hey babe, I went to U of I, how about U & I?" !!!!!!!

[SouthSideRyan]

And then I swoop in with a roll of hundreds and shove tree into a mudpile

I have no idea who this person, but he should go by "Brettel Dredge" from now on since that's how I read his name.
