Joey Votto is not only one of the greatest hitters in Cincinnati Reds history, but in baseball as a whole. The Reds' first baseman had a dominant prime that saw him rack up six All-Star selections, a Gold Glove, and the 2010 NL MVP trophy.
Votto was an on-base machine who led the league in on-base percentage seven times over his illustrious 17-year career. Even as he was slowed by injuries and age at the end, he retired with a .409 career on-base percentage and a .920 OPS.
Despite all of his well-deserved accolades, there was one thing that always eluded Votto: the Silver Slugger Award.
