The 2010 MVP started six consecutive games in the sixth spot of the order, racking up five hits, three walks, three homers, and six strikeouts in that short span of time.

The veteran went 2-for-3 with a single, a solo home run, three RBI, and a walk. While it was a great homecoming, Votto's fantasy value remains up in the air. He struggled in his rehab assignment and saw a significant dip in his production last season. Playing time may also be in question, as the Reds have a number of young players who are doing well. Votto's fantasy career...

The Cincinnati Reds activated first baseman Joey Votto (biceps, shoulder) from the 60-day injured list on Monday, and he will be making his season debut against the Colorado Rockies and left-hander Austin Gomber. "I feel much more like myself," Votto said.

The six-time All-Star and ...

Cincinnati Reds first baseman/designated hitter Joey Votto (shoulder) went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, two runs scored, two walks, and a strikeout in a minor league rehab game with Triple-A Louisville. The 39-year-old has been out all season while recovering from offseason shoulder surgery and still doesn't have a timetable to return to the Reds. It doesn't sound like they're in a rush to bring him back but it's nice to see him perform well at the dish.
