Nobody that has actually watched the Cubs this year would agree with you, but OK
.
Rizzo is not a poor baserunner, at all. He is a GG defender and has 109 RBI's compared to 73. Rizzo has 30+ doubles, 30+ home runs, and has driven in 100+.
Bryant has really struggled with RISP this year while Rizzo has been really clutch.

"Manager Joe Maddon threw his support behind Rizzo in the NL race, making it clear whom he considers the Cubs’ MVP. Rizzo, on fire at the plate the last few weeks, has become only the fourth Cubs player to have 30 doubles, 30 homers and 100 RBI in at least three seasons."
