We'll be getting one of the best players in baseball in the near future. With the way the other guys have started to hit, adding Votto to the middle of our lineup is going to help a lot.

If we clinch a week early or so, and then have a chance to knock St. Louis out of the playoffs in the final series of the year, I wonder how Dusty will play it.

they have the best record in one run games (win per) of any team ever as of today. their WAR also suggest a below .500 record.
