    Marty calling out Votto

    Marty was really hammering Votto on Cunningham's show today. Marty believes he is paid to produce runs and he's not doing it.

    Can we get Marty put under a gag order? He needs to go away.

    You guys are such a bunch of homers. Votto has not produced in the 3 hole and I am glad he is being called on it. If Votto was a 2 hole guy, I would have no problem with his numbers. How many times does Votto go 2 strikes? A lot. That is not his job. His is to hit first strikes over the fence or in the gap. He is not doing that. You guys love shooting down anyone who yells that the emperor is naked. Well keep dressing this pig gentlemen because if this keeps up, we will not be playing ball deep in to October.

    I hope Votto gets a power surge soon, he's off his regular pace as of now and I do see him missing quite often on fastballs in the zone. I don't have an issue with asking more of Votto at this moment because I know he can deliver. I don't really like Marty's style of critique, though.

    Just change the word "Water" to "Votto" : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu9VA3pTEzs These "Homers" really do feel like Adam Sandler in Waterboy about this Canuck!!

    Marty, Marty, Marty...

    Yes, clearly Votto is the reason the Reds scored FIVE runs in the last five games....




    Why is he not pointing out that GIBP is hitting around the mendoza line since May? Or that there are THREE batters in the entire lineup hitting above .258...

    But yes...it's on Votto...hit more homers, Joey, swing at more balls out of the zone. You are the RUN producer, dude!

    *sigh*

    That could be it. Or it could possibly be that us "homers" don't have what I like to call "a fundamental lack of understanding of how baseball works."

    Votto has basically been the 2 hole hitter all year... he's been the second person in the lineup with a legitimate chance to get on base

    He leads Cincinnati in generating the most buzz from people who think they know more about baseball than they really know too.
