Joey Votto is the best Cincinnati Reds hitter since at least Joe Morgan. You might argue he’s even better than that (as a hitter only). But either way, he’s one of the best hitters this franchise has ever seen. He currently has the highest OPS+ (which is adjusted for the league and years played) in franchise history at 155. Frank Robinson is second at 150.
With all of that said, the 2018 season was the lowest season when it comes to OPS+ of Joey Votto’s career. His 125 mark matched his rookie season, and his 2014 season when he played half of the season with a knee injury before shutting things down.
