I feel like we’re not going to get much out of either guy so may as well go with Votto for that hometown boost.
Is votto healthy or not all season because that’s the problem with him, not in his favor the last 4 years, could be different being DH more.
Honestly from a baseball perspective I’d rather roll with Horowitz and see what he can do over a full season with a solid spot in the roster, but both Danny Burgers and Votto would significantly raise the level of VIBES, which would be nice in case this season does go south.
Forgot to post who bangs more
Given the upside on Vogelbach is pretty low I’d take my chances on a revitalized Votto. The potential payoff is much higher.
Votto all day long.
I wish I could go back in time to November and try to explain this
Votto purely for the vibes quotient
If games were equal, Votto would likely be ahead in all categories

Votto, by a lot.
I’ll take Danny Vogelburger
But more importantly…. Who do people wanna see?
Race em
Votto can play a position so uh that’s a bonus…
Do people just like Votto because he’s Canadian ?
Can I select option C?
Vogelbach, he’s had a 119 and 148 WRC+ vs R the past 2 seasons compared to Votto’s 85 and 89 WRC+ vs R the past 2 years.
This makes me sad for a team that has high aspirations.
gimme the vottodongs
Heart says Votto, head says Vogelbach.
It’s not about overall stats but what you can do now for the team.
VOGELBACH batting average last 2 years 2022 .255 2023. .228
VOTTO 2022. .205 2023. .202
Votto for the vibes only!
I see you elected to exclude the “clutch” row from their stat comparison. Accidental? I think not!
I’m still taking Votto
I just love his attitude and what he could teach the guys. He was one of the best hitters in baseball for a time. Vogelbach has floundered around, up and down from the minors. Really not accomplishing much at all
You mean fighting to catch their breath between each inning right?
I’m taking VOTTO all the way. Vog’s only value is the HR and he doesn’t hit a ton of them. Anything less than a HR and he’s a liability. Jay’s leave enough base runners on without having a guaranteed out like Vog’s. Defensively he adds no value either.
