If the team is in full rebuild mode, then go full rebuild.

If they was in a full rebuild mode, they would of likely removed Walt from his duty as GM. You don't go full rebuild with the GM - or head coach - that put you in this miss. It just doesn't make any sense to me. You take a different approach with a new leader.


Even if they was in full rebuild, you need to have someone you trust to play that position. I haven't checked the farm in a little bit, but from what I heard during the season, they don't have a major league ready first basemen. 

honestly, I could see Votto being moved in next two - three years to the AL where he would be a DH. But I don't see them doing it just to shed salary at this point in his career. He's been by far the best player on this team.
