Joey Votto punchless in July
by Chris Zolli | Blue Jays Correspondent | Thu, Jul 14th 5:27pm EDT
Joey Votto was hitless in three of his last four games before the All-Star break and had only one hit in the game he had a hit. Votto does have a decent .280 batting average in the month of July, but only has two doubles, two RBI, and four runs scored. He has an .831 OPS this season.
Fantasy Impact:
Votto's value is propped up by the fact that he is third in the National League in walks with 61, but he has not been the offensive force he was in the past, as he is on pace for only 52 extra-base hits. There are many that think that his patience can translate into increased offensive output, but he is only on pace for 76 RBI and 87 runs scored.
