Joey Votto’s quest to become a Hall of Famer will take a hit due to the shortened-season.
Is Joey Votto a Hall of Famer? Eh, that’s very debatable. I’m a big fan of Votto, and I have to squint really hard to envision the Cincinnati Reds first baseman as a Hall of Fame player at this moment. The delay to begin the 2020 season will only hurt Votto’s chances of making it to Cooperstown.
Again, I can’t stress enough how much I love and admire Joey Votto’s game.
