4 weeks agoTony Andracki

Anthony Rizzo is going to be a dad.

And that means Kevin Rizzo is going to be a big brother.

The former Cubs first baseman and World Series hero took to Instagram Thursday to share the news, with a photo of his internet-famous dog, Kevin, wearing a “Big brother” bandana:

Rizzo and his wife, Emily, also shared a photo of the sonogram as well as a onesie that says “Baby Rizzo June 2025”.

The 35-year-old first baseman is currently a free agent. He spent the last 3.5 years with the Yankees after the Cubs traded him to New York at the deadline in 2021.

Rizzo was with the Cubs for 10 years from 2012-21, playing more than 1,300 games and 10 postseason series with the North Siders.

He was one of the faces of the team when the Cubs won it all in 2016 and reflected back on his time in Chicago when he made his long-awaited return in September.
