Let's hope Rizzo pans out cuz we're out of the big name FA 1B for a few years. And with Cain signing and Hamels on the brink, we may be shit outta luck for the best SP too.

Hi,
The second round pick last summer was a big kid out of Bishop Verot High School in Fort Myers. He is a first baseman and hits the ball a ton. He is young but he could also be coming down the line in a couple of years. I followed him because one of my children was the scorekeeper for the Bishop Verot baseball team for a couple years before we moved away. Some were surprised the Cubs drafted him so high because he was not particularly athletic, or so it was said. I did read an article about him in Phoenix, guess he is trimmed down and hitting the ball hard. It should be fun to see how well he does.
regards,
