Fantasy Baseball Team Names: The Best Funny Team Names

No. 6 A to the Rizzo


What's in a Name: Jay-z fans will like this nod to the Blueprint album from the folks at Athlon Sports. Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is coming off a career year. Rizzo had a career high in his batting average, hits and RBI numbers. He hit .292 with 32 home runs and 109 RBI last season. Yahoo Sports ranks Rizzo as their third first baseman and 10th ranked player overall. It looks like he will be snagged in the first two rounds in most fantasy drafts. Fans worried that Rizzo is headed for regression should rest easy. While Rizzo's numbers were slightly higher last season, they were in line with his stats from the past two seasons meaning he is as solid as they come at first base. (Getty)
