What a nice swing this kid has! That's the 1st thing that comes to my mind when I think about Anthony Rizzo. Rizzo was part of the 3 prospect deal with the Padres that netted the Sox Adrian Gonzalez last year.
Rizzo got rushed to the bigs by the Padres in 2011 & he didn't perform well. Theo is a believer in Rizzo, as is Jed Hoyer who was with the Padres, & they are glad to have him back in Cubbie-land. Carlos Pena will not be re-signed & 1B is a position you could see Rizzo in later in 2012.
I'm no scout, but I think this kid will be around for awhile.
