With Joey at #1 in the league in OBP (.517) and Choo at #2 (.494), I was wondering what the top OBPs for a single season in Reds history are? Does Joey already hold the top spot?

Reggie Taylor and Tom Lawless would have to be somewhere in the Top 500.
Votto had a .474 last year, and led the league
Unless you count last season (.474) I doubt it. Last season though is good for 60th all time. The problem is that pitching is trending upwards and improving all the time. It's a lot harder to get an OBP as high as it used to be.
For example the highest non-Votto OBP last year was Joe Mauer with .416.
I see great things in baseball. It's our game.
Votto didn't have enough PAs to qualify for the "record" in 2012. OBP was awesome though.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
