It appears that the dizziness that Reds first baseman Joey Votto has been dealing with is related to an ear infection.
The team said Thursday that Joey Votto has been diagnosed with an inner ear infection, secondary to the flu he had last week.
The team said all other test results were normal and he is expected to return to the field in the next few days.
Votto has missed 8 starts with the flu or dizziness and twice more left games early.
The Reds (as well as fantasy baseball owners everywhere) need this guy back in their lineup. Votto is quickly emerging as one of baseball’s best young hitters and hopefully he makes a quick recovery.
