He hadn't returned from injury. Until he returns from injury, he's merely "on schedule" to return when he was projected to and anything that prevents that return (re injury, aggravation, setbacks, etc.) extends the time table.
I don't know how you can define things any other way. Just because you get "A's" on the midterm and all the quizzes doesn't mean you're going to end up with an "A" in the class -- you might be on schedule to get an "A," but there's still a final exam to worry about before you can write the grade down on your transcripts.
Cincinnati Reds: Farm System Champions 2022
Agreed. I heard Votto remark a few days ago that this was the first time he has ever suffered ANY type of injury playing baseball before.
That means he is still working to define--within his own mind--the differences between general post-op soreness and pain that should be brought to someone else's attention.
Any news on Votto's return?
Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.
You know, if anything, this stretch has shown this team that it can win without Votto. These guys have to have sky-high confidence right now.

“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Outstanding.
The dude IS Canadian. I'm sure his beard is very manly.
All jokes aside, the Reds need to get Votto back for no other reason than to get him back in the groove while giving Dusty time to figure out how he wants to play Ludwick/Rolen/Frazier in only two spots on a day to day basis.
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.
Looks like the decision's been made.All jokes aside, the Reds need to get Votto back for no other reason than to get him back in the groove while giving Dusty time to figure out how he wants to play Ludwick/Rolen/Frazier in only two spots on a day to day basis.

It's almost 6 weeks until the playoffs start. Anything can happen between now and then. But no matter what, just knowing the team is in first and an MVP caliber player is going to be joining the team soon is never a bad thing.
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
