Strikeouts no longer major issue for Anthony Rizzo

Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo has been on fire lately, and has improved his strikeout rate.

Rizzo worked to fix a hitch in his swing April 28, and has been strong since. One of Rizzo's biggest issues early in the year was his high strikeout rate, which had pushed his average below .200. Since he fixed his swing, Rizzo has struck out just five times in his last 32 at-bats.

As Ed Gauna pointed out recently, Rizzo is currently enjoying a seven-game hitting streak. After a questionable start to the season, he's starting to live up to his lofty Fantasy potential.
