Scouting Report: Tough as nails 1B with an excellent build for his age.  Very good overall approach at the plate, with a good eye, bat speed, timing, and contact. Strong power to all fields.  In the field, Rizzo is an average to above average defender with a solid arm. He has surprising lateral quickness for his size.   Said to be a leader by example and a great teammate.
