Most of us are just discussing the output from the firs base position and if Votto stays at his current level or regresses even more, where’s the cutoff limit and is there a cutoff limit. First base is traditionally a very strong hitting position. The Reds need to pick up an extra 15 homers and 50 RBI over league average at SS, CF and C just to replace production that Votto isn’t producing.
Personally, I thought the Reds had learned their lesson of signing mega long term deals with Griffey. I still do not like the Votto deal. However, I'm sure it will happen again with someone else in the future.
Who Dey!
