He does not just want to walk. He wants to wait for a good pitch to hit. It is not jut his OB%. OB% doesn't get anyone into the Hall of Fame. Votto has a shot because he has a career .300 batting average and .500 slugging percentage. And he has those numbers because he waited for good pitches to hit.
But this year he is taking good pitches, and he is not squaring up on the ones that he does swing at. He is a mess.
