Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Cincinnati Reds.

As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.

Last year, the Reds had a losing record and was unable to make the playoffs.  There were no new active players.

As always, we present our top five, which saw a change in the top five based on the new algorithm.

1. Pete Rose

2. Johnny Bench

3. Frank Robinson

4. Barry Larkin

5. Joey Votto

You can find the entire list here.

With the new algorithm, Larkin jumped into the top five.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Joey Votto, arguably the best Cincinnati Red over the last 20 years announced that he is retiring from baseball.

Votto, who was playing for Triple-A Buffalo of the Toronto Blue Jays, elected not to continue his career and possible play in front of his home country.

Votto had a claim at one time as the best hitter in baseball.

While most people know that he is good, they might not be aware this is a player who won the National League On Base Percentage Title fseven times (including four in a row from 2010 to 2014, batted over .300 eight times, and is also a former Slugging Champion. 

Votto retires with  a 64.4 bWAR, 2,135 Hits, 356 Home Runs, 1,144 RBIs, and a Slash Line of .294/.408/.511.

He will be eligible for the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2029.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com wish Joey Votto the best in his post-playing career.

Joey Votto had a claim at one time as the best hitter in baseball.

While most people know that he is good, they might not be aware this is a player who won the National League On Base Percentage Title seven times (including four in a row from 2010 to 2014, batted over .300 eight times, and is also a former Slugging Champion.  With that last accolade, the Canadian clearly has power as he has well over 300 Home Runs, and 2,000 Hits in a career that was only been spent in Cincinnati.
