FACTS/ FLUKES: Rizzo, Rodriguez, Hays, Lopez, Pena
Mar 27 2023
Will shift ban boost Rizzo? ... Anthony Rizzo's (1B, NYY) first full season in the Bronx saw him match a career best 32 HRs in just 130 games, but his .224 BA was near the bottom of 130 qualified hitters. He also missed time with back pain and had an IL stint suffering from headaches. At 33, can he duplicate the HRs and -- with help from MLB's shift ban -- deliver a respectable average?
