Exactly 13 months to the day the San Diego Padres acquired top prospect Anthony Rizzo they traded him along with RHP Zach Cates to the Chicago Cubs for RHP Andrew Cashner and outfielder Kyung-Min Na. With the acquisition of Yonder Alonso last month, the Padres were more than likely to move one of their young first baseman. After hitting .365 when he was called up June 9, 2011, Rizzo hit .141 in 49 games with one home run and nine runs batted in.
