Yes any bringing in of Votto is for Jays is simply to try and get a PR win and to placate some casual fans this offseason with some maple syrup. It's not a great idea but can't imagine many season ticket holder who are paying 30%+ more for their 100 level seats post renovation, are thrilled with that offseason, so I think the Jays have to do something to give the offseason a pop.
Can he still hit? Probably, but not daily and not any better then any number of other options out there at DH.
