The good news of the day is the return of Joey Votto to the Cincinnati Reds active roster, the future Hall of Famer finally making his way back after multiple arm and shoulder surgeries last fall derailed his 2022 campaign.
The bad news of the day is the roster move it took to get him active, however.
The Reds announced prior to the start of their series opener against the Colorado Rockies that they’d placed Hunter Greene on the 15-day IL due to, presumably, the same right hip issue that had pushed him back from a start last week.
