Pair of walks in return Votto (thumb), activated from the injured list earlier in the day, went 0-for-2 with two walks in a loss to the Brewers on Tuesday.
Impact The veteran first baseman saw his first game action since May 5 and displayed his trademark patience at the plate. Votto operated out of the cleanup spot for the seventh time this season, and it remains to be seen if he'll begin to log more time in a premium slotting that will often place him behind Nick Castellanos and ahead of Eugenio Suarez. Votto will also look to rediscover the momentum he seemed to be generating before his injury, as he'd slashed an impressive .273/.385/.545 across the 26 plate appearances covering his last seven games leading into his month-plus absence.

Returning Tuesday Votto (thumb) will be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Bobby Nightengale of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Votto has been out of the Reds' lineup since fracturing his thumb May 5. He began a rehab assignment last week and manager David Bell said Sunday that the first baseman may be able to rejoin the club prior to Tuesday's series opener. The Reds have yet to release a lineup for Tuesday's game, but Votto seems likely to start at first base during his return. The Reds have yet to announce an official roster move to make room for Votto on their 26-man roster.

Impact Votto hasn't played for the Reds since May 5 due to a fracture in his left thumb. While soreness in the injured thumb is less than ideal, it doesn't appear that it's of great concern at this point. Votto figures to make his return to the Cincinnati lineup at some point this coming week, with a chance of him being activated as soon as Tuesday against Milwaukee.
