The Chicago Cubs have seen a lot of historically good players come through and call Wrigley Field home. Anthony Rizzo is one of those guys as he was the face of the franchise for a very long time. Bringing him in all those years ago was one of the smartest moves in the history of the organization.
Unlike all of the other great faces that came before him, Rizzo actually helped what was a helpless team win the whole thing. Rizzo and the Cubs won the World Series together in 2016 so you know that he is forever connected to the squad.
