FACTS/FLUKES: Rizzo, Cole, O. Herrera, Corbin, Thompson

What's behind Rizzo's awful BA? ... Two straight seasons of top-tier production from Anthony Rizzo (1B, CHC) earned him first-round status in most 2016 drafts. While Rizzo's smacked 11 HR through 171 AB, he's only hitting .229 with two steals thus far. Should we be concerned?
