Good thing Theo didn't make that big splash in his first year. Things would be a lot different. And that doesn't even include Rizzo's pretty good 2012 and does include his disappointing 2013. Of course it doesn't include Pujols's good 2012 and Fielder's great one. No, but if you do, he's produced more fWAR than either of them individually (barely, but still). Oh, I don't think anyone disagrees that avoiding them turned out to be the right move(it'd take a lot of twisting to say otherwise). It was just kind of a silly comment implying that Rizzo was being shortchanged on the comparison.
