All hands on deck: Hungry Cubs in hunt

Maddon calls Rizzo a "complete player," and the first baseman was recognized with his second straight All-Star selection.
In his five starts before the break, Arrieta went 4-0 with a 1.13 ERA, and he is the first Cubs pitcher with 10 wins at the halfway mark since Ryan Dempster and Carlos Zambrano did so in 2008.
Promoted to the big leagues April 17, the third baseman is off to a great start. He was named NL Rookie of the Month in May, selected to the NL All-Star team in July and led the Cubs in RBIs at the break.
