Though a lot of us worry that this season’s hot stove will be a repeat of last season’s boiler plate special, it’s nice to finally see some Cubs news when I scroll through my various baseball feeds. Yesterday the Cubs exercised their option on first baseman Anthony Rizzo, and a few hours later Rizzo won his third career Gold Glove Award.
More fun than that was the playful ways in which Yu Darvish expressed his enthusiasm for Rizzo’s stellar defense on Instagram and Twitter.
