Absolutely.....top 5 in NL in avg, HR, RBI, Slug%, OPS and a huge reason why Reds fans have enjoyed their evening watching baseball thsi season.
Reds fans need to step up....he was totally screwed. How hard would it have been to give Heath Bell the Padres bid and put Votto in over Adrian Gonzalez who has far less impressvie numbers.
Vote 4 Votto!

Ryan Howard needs to get the hell out. That is the biggest joke I have ever seen to pick Howard over Votto.

I have to agree, Votto deserves the vote.

The last time it happened in the AL, the player was BOOG POWELL!
BTW...Boog Powell is the answer to a long time baseball trivia question about what family sent the most kids to the major leagues. The answer is the Alou's.......Felipe, Matty, Jesus, and Boog. The latter changed his last name to Powell because he didnt want to be known as BOOG ALOU! Get it??? hehehehehehehehehe
Nice, we even got a little bit of humor out of him!!

All Star Game is a joke. Let's have a post-season banquet like NASCAR to recognize the best players. Reduce the regular season by a week and get the World Series over before Thanksgiving! Give homefield advantage to whichever league wins the inter-league matchups. EVOLVE already! DH in both leagues and instant replay. Geesh!

I agree with almost everything you said d&c, until you said the DH. The DH sucks and is a pathetic part of baseball.

That's cool! Let's make it one way or the other. I'm tired of it in one league and not the other. Do we have it in the All-Star sham? Is it in the World Series? Depends on the ballpark. Really????? Either it is accepted universally or not at all. And let's get a hard salary cap. Baseball hasn't had a great commissioner since Landis (Google it). Throw Selig out and get some b*lls and run this league!!!!!!!!!!!

Votto right now is the mid-season MVP of the National League it's a shocker that he didn't get in. Please vote for him
