Not sold on Marte and DLC defensively so far at 3B and SS respectively.
Yea, Votto seems to be out of it. He is swinging at pitches he would NEVER have swung at in his prime. That isn't a physical loss, that's a mental change.
I hope he gets it together to finish the season, but the idea of having him on the roster next year seems bleak.
DLC is a much better 3B, imo, because his biggest strength is his rocket arm but I think he's decent at SS.
Marte has only played 2 games so far, so I'll reserve judgement, but he doesn't look like a defensive savant out there, that's for sure.
