After 10 seasons as one of the faces of the Chicago Cubs, it was strange seeing Anthony Rizzo wearing New York Yankees pinstripes for the final two months of the 2021 season after he was traded off in the Cubs' summer fire sale.
What uniform will he be wearing in 2022?
The market for a first baseman without any defensive versatility is inevitably going to be limited, and Rizzo fell short of All-Star-caliber numbers last year by posting a 111 OPS+ with 22 home runs and 1.7 WAR in 141 games.
Still, his long track record of success, the value he provides with both his bat and his glove, and his leadership abilities give him the potential to be an impactful addition.
