The final hour of the week for The FAN Morning Show with Ben Ennis and Daniele Franceschi begins revisiting Joey Votto’s decision to walk away from the game and retire. The pair reflect on his career and are joined by someone who covered him throughout & wrote numerous articles about him, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic. The trio reflect on what made Joey special in his career, what makes him a Hall of Famer, how crazy some of his stats are, his unique personality, what endeared him to Cincinnati fans and his journey becoming more comfortable with the media and public eye. Next B&D turn their attention back to the Blue Jays with MLB.com’s Keegan Matheson (24:55). Besides some particulars from last night’s game, the three dive into Ernie Clement’s season and outlook for 2025, if or when we’ll see Jake Bloss this year, what a move to third is dependent on for Vlad Guerrero Jr., and the franchise’s possible future with Arjun Nimmala.
