Anthony Rizzo watch -- the 2012 version

[Ryno84MVP]

The Cubs can promote Rizzo on Saturday in Arizona and have him end the season with 171 days of service time, one fewer than what he would need for a full season. That would mean he won't be a free agent until after 2018, not '17

Assuming the Super 2 rule does not apply. The article does not cover that detail.

The highly anticipated callup of Cubs top prospect Anthony Rizzo won’t happen in the next few days, and not in Arizona, Cubs manager Dale Sveum said before Friday’s game against the Diamondbacks at Chase Field. Asked if Rizzo, a first baseman, could be in pinstripes during the next homestand, which starts Monday, Sveum remained non-committal. “I don’t know if there’s a date on it,” Sveum said. “It’s obvious he’s coming soon but we don’t have a date yet.”
