Joey Votto returns to the Cincinnati Reds amidst an eight-game winning streak and a division race the Reds are only a half-game out of first for. Otto's presence boosts the Reds lineup even more than it already has been, which the Reds just scored 21 runs in a three-game sweep of the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park. The Reds are the hottest team in baseball for good reason.

The Reds have what it takes to win the NL Central this year. They will have some roster decisions to make this week as Graham Ashcraft is eligible to return.
