Sorry ladies of Chicago, another Cubs superstar is off the market.
Last night, Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo proposed to his girlfriend of a little over a year, Emily Vakos. According to her LinkedIn page, Vakos graduated from Arizona State University and is currently a real estate broker in Chicago. It appears Rizzo popped the question on Lake Michigan overlooking the beautiful Chicago skyline and not that I have to tell you — but of course she said yes.

The engagement comes about five months after Rizzo’s partner in crime, Kris Bryant, married his longtime girlfriend Jessica Delp in early January. Even though the two are officially off the market now, Bryant still wanted to congratulate his Cubs teammate and other half of “Bryzzo.”
Congrats to these two💍 https://t.co/Pgg1CdZBXK

Maybe Rizzo’s offensive struggles can be attributed to his nerves over the proposal and now he’ll finally bust out of his slump.
Maybe?
I’m just trying to think positive Cubs fans.
Congrats to Anthony and Emily.
