“Votto missed about 50 games due to injury in 2012, but still produced more than most Shortstops.”

“We all have faith in Tulo's numbers. If only we had faith in his health. But even if he gets hurt for a month, Tulo's year plus a month of his replacement is probably better than any other SS will produce.”

“Joey Votto also fell to the injury bug and missed 2 months on the DL with an injured knee in 2012. With his knee injury behind him, I look for the 29 year old Votto to return to form and to be a safer pick from regression than Albert Pujols. Joey Votto R HR RBI SB BA Three Year Average 89 27 91 10 0.323 2013 Projection 96 31 103 6 0.320 ”

“On my 2013 all bust team.”

“You cannot blame anyone for selecting Votto over Pujols, but will his surgically-repaired left knee hold up for the entire season?”

“The injury concern for Tulowitzki is legitimate, but so is his elite ability at the plate. This is a classic high-risk, high reward situation. ”

“7th in MLB in Doubles (44), 3rd in Walks (94) despite just 111 games”

“Ultimate dice roll - top 5 upside, well established health downside”

“Votto is losing power potential by the season. Last year was cut short with an injury, and time is starting to tick as he has yet to hit over 30+ HRs in consecutive seasons and approaching 29 HRs. The speed is not the same as it once was, but the batting average should remain ELITE.”

“Tulowitzki is the best power hitting SS in the game by a long shot. If he stays healthy, he can hit 30+ HRs. He can also steal around 20 bases and hit over .300. Tulo does it all and comes into 2013 at 100% after a groin injury forced him to miss nearly all of 2012.”

 

“While you are reading this, Tulowitzki is plotting the next way he can land himself on the DL - Just avoid and save yourself the headache”
