Joey Votto talked some about his depression and anxiety. I also wouldn’t be surprised if he was on the spectrum.

Depression, anxiety, and being on the spectrum are all different things. Anything else that leads you to believe Votto is on the spectrum?

Moe Norman is regarded by many as the best ball striker to ever play golf. He was almost certainly autistic and it’s what prevented him from using that talent to win a bunch of tournaments. He just went into a shell around the other players. If you listen to him in instructional videos though he is pretty clearly very autistic. Repeats himself, boasts- but in a matter of fact way and not an arrogant way. Dude could find the center of the club face with his eyes closed though

Shane Victorino has been pretty open about his struggles with ADHD. I would consider severe cases like his a major disorder.
