Is Anthony Rizzo sad? Anthony Rizzo seems sad. I look at Anthony Rizzo, and I say, “That man seems sad.” On Opening Day, he reacted to hitting a double by giving the crowd some love after rather publicly complaining about the Cubs’ extension offer, and he had a glum expression on his face. Last night, he had a brain fart that may have led the Cubs to lose, and in his postgame comments, he seemed so sad. Nobody seems all that happy, but Anthony Rizzo seems sad. And this makes me sad.
A big part of Anthony Rizzo’s appeal is how fun it is when he’s happy. He’s so jolly. So goofy. He had the hand sanitizer at first base. He was gleeful during the Javy Báez play that may have ended that dude’s MLB career (already forgot the name again, proving that play shouldn’t have ended his MLB career, please come back man it’s ok it’s gonna be ok). And while he did put his wienerdog in a tux recently, he still seems sad, and I don’t know how to cheer him up. Make him a pie? Buy him a pie? Mail a box of poop to the Cincinnati Reds?
*sigh*
