When did he become Loney? Is he a slow starter?

If you want me to look at your team, post the team. Don't post a link to another site where the team is.
Have you given me all the info I need to judge your team? The number of teams in the league is a good start for the big overall questions.
Is your league H2H? Roto?
I don't know who's on your waivers. Don't just ask me who you should pick up. Give me names to choose from.
If you only have one team, post your team in your signature with the league parameters.
I don't know every single matchup for next week, so if you want me to choose a player for the following week and you think the matchups are important, tell me who they're facing.

Heh. Last year this question was still being asked in July, IIRC. For whatever reason, he never seems to catch fire, but when you look up in October, his numbers are solid.

I'd add a coupla more things...

Offense is down across the board. This is just my gut talking, but sheesh... It seems like it's waaayyy down... So Votto doesn't need to have stats that look like Pujols in 2005 to be a top producer. Everything is relative in fantasy.

Second: he's riding the up-side of the curve. This isn't to say that he's not going to have an off-year here or there, but I think it's more likely than not that he's still getting better.
