With spring training games underway, baseball is being played, fans are back and life is good. The Chicago Cubs are back after winning the division last year and so far this spring, things are looking up, save for one small problem.
As I sat down to watch the Cubs take on the Seattle Mariners a few days ago, the name Anthony Rizzo atop the lineup card caught my eye. This was not Rizzo’s first time hitting leadoff and although I understand it’s only a spring training game, I had hoped this bad idea would have left with the old manager.
