Reds first baseman Joey Votto’s defense was abysmal this season.
It’s hard to make judgments based on just a 60-game season, however, that’s the cards the front office has been dealt. What amounts to about one-third of a normal season is all Dick Williams and Nick Krall have to work with. One thing is for sure, Joey Votto‘s defense was well below what was expected, and the Cincinnati Reds could use an upgrade at first base.
