I'll be thrilled . . . because that means that he's been off of this team for at least 5 years. I said it was a touchy subject. In a city where Mike Brown runs one major league team and the other major league team has sucked for 6 years, most people in that area look for something good to cling to and I just shit all over it. Sorry.
I've never felt that he was "the man". Jay Bruce, Todd Frazier and Brandon Phillips all had that "climb on my back" vibe WAY more than Votto, he just outlasted them and when he did become the leader by default, the team went to shit because he was pretty much all that was left. If he didn't have the big contract that he does, it wouldn't be so much of a stink but he put up some seriously crappy numbers from 1st base compared to what's out there making far less in MLB.
The last two years . . . this has become Suarez' team and I don't see that changing any time soon unless Aquino or some other youngster blows up.
