I'm not usually in the car between 9 and 10, but since I was, I turned on these two. I had no idea that Anthony Rizzo was one of the top five players in baseball. Click. |

Excluding pitchers, a strong case can be made for top 10 in baseball. |

And the fact that DJ Lemahieu has more hits than Rizzo. Awww. Cute. "Hits" And yet Rizzo gets himself on first base more often, second base more often, and homers more often. Seacrest...sort all Major League hitters by BA, in descending order. Is that the list of the best hitters as far as you know? Now sort all Major League hitters by OPS, in descending order. Does it look a little better? |

Seacrest thinks Abreu is the 32nd best hitter in baseball, and Trout is the 33rd. |

Trout is a beast that in 7 years the discussion will start about GOAT. Similar Batters through 22 Mickey Mantle (941) * Frank Robinson (935) * Hank Aaron (923) * Ken Griffey (922) Miguel Cabrera (918) |

Funny thing, when another guy was the leader of a another team, he became known as "The Captain" as was celebrated for 1.5 years for doing so. I am good with Ant'ony being the King Bruh leader of a team of really good young baseball players. Sounds like some serious Jealousy is peaking around the corner?

It takes a very determined human with incredible leadership qualities to do what Rizzo has done. The guys kicks ass on the field and off. This guy is a treasure and Theo/Jed deserve a ton of credit for chasing after this guy over and over. |
