Default Joey Votto Named Lou Marsh Award Winner!

Congrats to Votto! His second Lou Marsh Award!

Quote:
Votto, 34, put up a career-high 1.032 OPS with 100 RBI, 36 home runs and just 83 strikeouts in 707 plate appearances this past season. He finished second in National League MVP voting behind Giancarlo Stanton, partially because his Reds finished in last place in the NL Central with just 68 wins on the season.

Votto also became only the third player in MLB history to produce at least 179 hits, 36 homers and 134 walks with 83 strikeouts or fewer in a single season. The other two are Babe Ruth and Ted Williams.

That's quite illustrious company for Joey, congrats on a fine season and winning the Lou Marsh.
