Now Taking the Field
Issue #
Reds 1B Joey Votto, who turned 41 a few days ago, recently announced his retirement from baseball. He was with the Blue Jays organization this year, playing in 31 games in their minor league system—but the Reds is the only team he’s ever played for at the major league level.
From a few interviews I’ve seen, I suspect we’ll see him back in the game at some point in some capacity, perhaps in the broadcast booth or doing analysis/commentary on ESPN, MLB Network, or elsewhere. Or I’m sure he could get into coaching, starting say as a hitting instructor in the minor leagues or Caribbean (hint: he has been studying Spanish lately.)
As I’ve done for a couple of Hall of Famers who passed away in recent years (Gaylord Perry and Brooks Robinson), I decided to do a little digging into Votto’s career numbers. So this is the latest in my player beskrivning series that I’m calling “Best, Worst, Outliers, and Oddities.”
