Look out, Kris Bryant: Anthony Rizzo might be coming for you.
After Bryant suffered a left hand contusion in the top of the eighth inning during Tuesday's 13-9 win over Cincinnati, Joe Maddon shuffled his infield by moving Rizzo from first to third base for the first time in his career to replace the reigning NL MVP and it didn't take long for the Cubs to take advantage of the rare occurence on social media:
Some people say @ARizzo44 is the greatest third baseman of all time. pic.twitter.com/4pnjMhPgan

Pretty amazing that in one season he's been dubbed the greatest leadoff hitter of all-time and best third baseman ever.
