NBC Sports confirmed that former Cincinnati Reds great Joey Votto will join Clayton Kershaw and Anthony Rizzo in providing insight as MLB returns to NBC and Peacock for the 2026 season.
NBC Sports' D.J. Short wrote that the trio "will serve as pregame analysts for the Wild Card round of the MLB playoffs this fall and will also appear on select Sunday Night Baseball broadcasts during the regular season alongside hosts Bob Costas and Ahmed Fareed."
Front Office Sports' Michael McCarthy reported in January that Votto was finalizing a deal with NBC Sports to be part of its MLB coverage for the upcoming season.
Bengals and Bearcats radio play-by-play announcer Dan Hoard shared via Twitter/X that he thinks Votto "will be one of the best baseball analysts ever."
"Smart, funny, and (best of all) 100 percent unique," Hoard tweeted. "When Tim McCarver did local TV with the Mets, he changed the way I thought about the game. Joey will have the same impact if he enjoys broadcasting and sticks with it."
