We’re a little over three weeks into Anthony Rizzo’s tenure as a Yankee, and his acquisition is one the Yankees’ organization would do all over again if they had the chance (and they’d do it with full support of the Yankee fan base as well). Since making his debut with the Yankees on July 30th, Rizzo has posted a 127 OPS+ and shown his glove is as good as the reputation that preceded it. Additionally, regardless of whether or not you believe in clutch, several of his hits have come in crucial situations in games that eventually became Yankee wins, making him an instant fan favorite.
