There are no doubts about what Paul Goldschmidt brings to Yankees
NY Post
TAMPA — The belief from his current and former clubhouses is consistent: Paul Goldschmidt, the player and the person, is going to help the Yankees.
A spring matchup with the Cardinals provided a reunion-type atmosphere for the new Yankees first baseman, who spent six mostly excellent seasons in St. Louis.
He did not return for a seventh season because his contract expired, the Cardinals had announced a rebuild, and he had tailed off in what was his age-36, 2024 season.
So he fell to the Yankees on a one-year, $12.5 million deal, bringing with him a potential Hall of Fame pedigree and concerns about how much he still could offer a team.
The answer, according to several who know Goldschmidt well: a lot.
“He’s going to have a big year,” said longtime teammate and friend Nolan Arenado. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes out and plays really well.”
