I fully understand sample sizes and competition levels as I've argued against people complaining about this all the time. But a ~50 OPS+ is outside of a reasonable outcome for a full season for someone like Rizzo at that level. I mean you may as well use any card at all and expect a better outcome than that. Something does not jive here.
Feel free to disagree, but the larger sample sizes have shown that the problem is not with the Rizzo card but with the smaller sample.
