Reynolds for Votto?

[jordangut]

I have Reynolds, but coveted Votto in the draft. It's a non-keeper league. Is it worth losing Reynold's stolen bases for Votto's Vottoness?

League Size, League Scoring and your Roster in this post would help a great deal in getting the best response.

Personally I like Votto much better, and may be the minority for it. Point blank I just don't see Mark stealing over 15-17 bases again, I really don't think with the way he hacks at everything at the plate and hit out over 40, just don't think that will happen again. Not to mention the major difference in Joey and Mark is the average, Reynolds has a great shot at hitting somewhere around .250 maybe even as low as .240 if not even lower then that, while Joey is looking sexy for .300+. Reynolds has the power to put out 40 HR, but I don't think he has the plate presence to do it.

My opinion is until Reynolds does it again I'm not calling him a legit 40/20 guy. 223 Strikeouts last year is just glaring at me when I see his .260 average, to me thats a ton of luck, luck that may or may not run out. Only thing I can honeslty say that may give Reynolds a bit more value is his 1B/3B eligibility. But for me give me a steady .300 hitter with 100/30/100 anyday...

Give me Votto under any circumstances.
