Don't agree at all there and I'm as big a Rizzo fan as there is.

Votto is really smart, but I think he may have a bit of a temper.
Yeah, and doesn't he have a rep of being kind of a lunatic?

If I couldn't have Anthony Rizzo, I'd gladly take Joey Votto.

Better fielder, better baserunner, gets on base more and while this year Rizzo's power numbers are better to this point, the season ain't over yet and since 2013 Votto's have been better.

I'm not certain on it, but I would have thought Rizzo was the better fielder and baserunner. And he has more power. But Votto's on base wizardy is enough to get him back at least tied with Rizzo for me.

Really it is splitting hairs between the two right now.
