Gonna be a rough end of the season. Hate that for him.

Says he hurt it in 2015 and was able to play through until this year when the pain reached the point of interrupting sleep and interfering with other normal activities. Plans to be ready for Spring Training.
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!

That’s all I need to be convinced he’s gonna come back mashing next season.

That's how I choose to look at this. I'm hopeful this is the cause of his struggles this year and he finishes his career with a decent season.
I'm not sure there's anyone really interesting to bring up the rest of the way. Probably say hello to old friend Colin Moran.

Had this injury been known before? I don’t remember it but then I’m old.

Time to call up Steer and give him a look. Best wishes on a speedy recovery to Votto.

Unpopular take probably, but any chance of a retirement settlement/buyout?
He’s owed 32M between the 25M 2023 salary and the 7M 2024 buyout. Any chance he’d take like 20M and not be forced to go through a grueling rehab at age 39 or however old he is?
My guess is that wouldn’t be the way he wants to go out, but I think it could make sense for both sides.
Votto refused to blame the injury on performance. But you know it affected him.
We have several here claiming he is done and needs to be sent out to pasture.
Like usual they have no idea what they are talking about. I bet some and maybe all of his teammates didn't even know.
