Calm your tits and watch the games or look at his babip. He is hitting the ball hard right at folks. He has had several RBI hits snatched away by great defensive plays in the last couple of weeks.

Rizzo is still doing great. Two weeks like this will be followed with two weeks of an OPS of 1.200.

That's a ton of excuses.

Maybe Rizzo isn't all that?

He's in danger of slipping into Abreu territory in OPS. Only 50 points ahead.

I feel like I have brought the old team back together by bumping this thread.

Maybe we can petition Bigfan to let Frank back in

One guy makes a great defensive play. The other guy almost loses a game. Far better?

Looks like this comparison needs to go to a tiebreaking third year.

Subdivision meatballs out in full force this morning. Every single one of 'em stating they'd take Abreu over Rizzo all day everyday. Rizzo is just popular b/c he's a Cub!

Is he really popular.

He seems like the guy who is perpetually overlooked while being the principal producer

Rizzo .914
Abreu .861

Rizzo hovering right around "marginally superior" to Abreu this year.

All year. Which is more than can be said about Abreu over Rizzo last year.

You're right. For much of this year, Rizzo lead Abreu by over .100.

Yup, and just like last year, Rizzo was able to close the gap some.

That is why we need a third tiebreaking year.
