Cincinnati Reds: 3 lineup shuffling scenarios to replace injured Joey Votto

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto (19) hits an RBI single.

Unfortunately, the Cincinnati Reds are going to be without star first baseman Joey Votto for the next few weeks. After being hit by pitch form Dallas Keuchel in the bottom of the fourth inning of yesterday’s game versus the Chicago White Sox, Votto was forced to exit the game and is expected to miss at least three weeks with a broken thumb.

It looks as though Votto will head to the 10-day injured list while the six-time All-Star recovers. The Reds, unfortunately, do not have a ton of depth at first base.
