[情報] Neck stiffness continues for Votto

CINCINNATI -- If Reds first baseman Joey Votto wanted to move his neck
Thursday, he still had to do it delicately. Stiffness kept Votto out of the
lineup against the Pirates for a second day.
It was unlikely that manager Dusty Baker would have Votto available off the
bench.
"It's better than [Wednesday]," Votto said. "Yesterday wasn't a very good
day. I really didn't feel that well. I came and talked to Dusty and ran it by
Paul [Lessard, the head trainer]. They came to the conclusion that I should
take the day off."
Votto often resists offers for an off-day and doesn't like missing games.
Miguel Cairo played first base in his place again.
"You have to look at the big picture here," Votto said. "We got the win
yesterday and that's all that really matters."
Baker is trying to protect his players from nagging injuries or too much wear
and tear, too early.
"This is the time of year when a lot of little things start happening, almost
every year about now," Baker said. "That's why I always try to program things
to get guys to the summer months. You get to the summer months and the heat
takes care of a lot of stuff."
Votto今天還是不太舒服,所以被移出先發打線。
