Joey Votto Off Thursday
6 years agoCincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto is getting the day off for Cincinnati's game against the New York Mets at 12:10 PM on Thursday. It appears to just be a standard rest day for Votto. Derek Dietrich is in at first base and batting third. Dietrich is only hitting .196 thanks to a .154 BABIP, but has five home runs. With just a five-game early slate, the lineup spot and platoon advantage against struggling Mets starter Noah Syndergaard could make Dietrich a reasonable DFS play.
