Homeruns and doubles with a guy on first are a big reason that sluggers get paid. Votto is more of an OBP guy than a slugger. He got paid a contract that a 30HR 100RBI .300 AVG guy would get. He had 15HR 47RBI and .261 AVG and takes up 20% of the payroll. If he had 30 more runners in scoring position, he may have had 10 more RBI. He really needs to drive the ball more. A high OBP is not a bad thing but it’s more valuable for a speedster than for a slow and bad base runner.

Yup, sacrifice flys 

MLB teams aren't paying guys like Rendon, Abreu, Alonso, Bellinger, Harper, Bregman, Trout and so on mega salaries for nothing. If anybody could do it, if they just had guys on base. That's silly
