Joey Votto
He was the NL MVP in 2010; He won the NL Hank Aaron Award in 2010
Votto's list of accomplishments is extensive. He was a six-time MLB All-Star and won the National League (NL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award in 2010, a season in which he also earned the prestigious Hank Aaron Award. Votto's achievements extended beyond the United States, as he was a seven-time recipient of the Tip O'Neill Award, given annually to the best Canadian baseball player. Additionally, he won the Lou Marsh Trophy twice, recognizing him as Canada's top athlete. His career numbers are a testament to his greatness, with over 2,000 hits, 300 home runs, and 1,000 runs batted in (RBI), making him only the second Canadian player to reach these milestones.
Throughout his career, Votto was known for his remarkable plate discipline, which set him apart from many of his peers. At the time of his retirement in 2024, he ranked first among active players in career walks with 1,365, and his on-base percentage (.409) was third among active players. His on-base plus slugging (OPS) of .920 placed him fourth among active players, further solidifying his reputation as one of the most efficient and productive hitters of his era. Votto's ability to consistently reach base and drive in runs made him a cornerstone of the Cincinnati Reds' lineup for nearly two decades.
Votto's legacy with the Reds is cemented alongside franchise legends like Johnny Bench. He is one of only two players in Reds history to record at least 300 home runs, 1,000 RBI, and 2,000 hits, joining Bench in this exclusive club. His contributions to the team and the sport have left an indelible mark, and his influence on younger players, both in the Reds organization and across MLB, will be felt for years to come. Votto's career is a model of excellence, consistency, and professionalism, making him one of the most respected figures in baseball.
