Anthony Rizzo will retire as a member of the Chicago Cubs on Saturday as one of the most impactful Chicago athletes in recent memory.

For many Chicago Cubs fans, the year 2012 presents a mixed bag of emotions. On one hand, it marked the first year of Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer’s tenure in Chicago. On the other hand, the Cubs posted a record of 61-101 for their worst season since 1966.
