Hits second home runRizzo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Brewers.
ImpactThat's two home runs in three games for Rizzo, which is a welcome sign given the back issues he dealt with during summer camp. The Cubs will likely use Victor Caratini some at first base to keep Rizzo fresh, but the latter looks healthy to begin the 2020 season and should post big numbers batting second in a strong Chicago lineup.

Hits first 2020 home runContreras went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Brewers.
ImpactContreras was scorching hot in summer camp with six home runs, and now he has his first long ball that counts in 2020. The 28-year-old caught two of the Cubs' first three games, with an appearance at DH in between. That formula could be used the rest of the way to limit the wear and tear on Contreras behind the plate.
