Padres-Cubs Preview

(AP) -- Although Anthony Rizzo has developed into an All-Star for the Chicago Cubs, he has yet to demonstrate that level of play against his former team.

The slugger may be able to turn that around Tuesday night since he is hitting left-handers well and has a homer against the San Diego Padres' Eric Stults, who looks to avoid falling to 0-8 on the road in the opener of a three-game set.

Rizzo was acquired from San Diego (43-55) on Jan. 6, 2012, and has quickly become one of the main building blocks for Chicago. He made his first All-Star appearance last week and has 23 homers to vie for the NL lead with Miami's Giancarlo Stanton.
