Joey Votto Returns Activated From Injured List
5 months agoToronto Blue Jays first baseman Joey Votto (ankle) has been reinstated from the seven-day minor-league injured list and will return to Triple-A Buffalo on Friday for the start of the second half of the season. Votto was rehabbing a serious ankle injury that he suffered in spring training in the first half of the season and went 8-for-43 with a home run in 53 plate appearances on his rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League and with Single-A Dunedin in 16 games. The 40-year-old is finally ready to take on a higher level of minor-league competition as he hopes to return to the big leagues for the first time in 2024 in the second half. The six-time All-Star should make his Jays debut before season's end, but it's likely to come with little playing time as a veteran left-handed bench bat.
