Fantasy Impact:

Rizzo is a cancer survivor and therefore falls into the "high risk" category from which players can opt out and still receive pay. So far today we have learned that Mike Leake, Joe Ross, and Ryan Zimmerman are all deciding not to play, though none of those three are of the "high risk" variety. There will continue to be tough decisions made by players over the next handful of days when it comes to whether or not to play.
