[Mae] Ross Atkins on Joey Votto: “He’s days away from baseball activities.. still feeling tightness in the ankle.”

1. This is why you put Vogelbach on the roster even if his $2 M is guaranteed. We don’t know when or even if Votto will ever be truly ready. Vogelbach brings a lot more of what we need on the roster at the moment then the other options like Lukes or Horwtiz.

2. A stupid bat on the ground completely ruined the hype and fun around Votto and ST 😡

3. If this means that Votto will genuinely be playing for the Bisons I’m so excited to see him live

4. Being nearly the same age as Votto I know it’s not going to be a quick bounce back, I had two injuries last season that took me a month each to get back to, granted I don’t have multi million dollar rehab facilities or stem cells readily available but he probably won’t see games for a couple more weeks

5. I wish Votto’s ankle a speedier recovery than mine! It’s been almost ten years since I broke it and it’s still mad at me.

6. The baseball gods really said

   “Oh you hit a home run on your first pitch at your first at bat in a blue jays uniform? Lol”

7. That sounds promising, lol
