Goldschmidt

[OldRed]

Would you for a bench player and backup at first.

Respectfully...a huge no.

No he has shown no dignity of production for past 2 years.

[Talkin' Baseball]

I like Goldschmidt, but no.

[sikeston bulldog2]

In my opinion a role like that would be much heavier in the leadership department. A Pujols like event.

[RamFan08NY]

No. Its a youth movement. Dont need him taking g those ABs away. Would rather see Nelson V gets those ABs to see if they catch lightning in a bottle. With PG, you know his floor and cieling are about the same level.

Sure - for Memphis.

He’s not a good fit.

If he were an OFer, yes.

But the infield already has a lot of pieces.

He’s best going to a team a little light in 1b and platoon dh

of course not

[Pura Vida]

Why would anyone think Goldy wants to come back to StL. He's had a great career and I would assume he would want a playoff team. Coming back to StL makes no sense for Goldy or the Cards.

[Adam2]

I'm surprised hes on the team USA roster for the classic

[ilcubuffs]

Based upon the current talent Goldy would be the starting 1B. It would take desperate time in Goldschmidt house to return to MO Ranville.

Goldy 2025 vs LHP:
168 PA's
7 HR
.336 .411 .570 .981

Burly 2025 vs LHP:
127 PA
3 HR
.271 .310 .398 .708

IF the price was right, then I'd take Goldy as a platoon w/Bumbles at 1st base and RHH'er off the bench.

(That said I still think he ends up back w/the DBacks)

[OldRed]

Good enough for the Yankees, but not the Cardinals.

Good enough for the Yankees, but not the Cardinals.

Cards in a rebuild. Yanks not. He was hired as a defensive replacement. Yanks have deeper lineup.

This rebuild is totally garbage. He would have been a great bat coming off the bench, a proven player who would have added leadership. Goldschmidt's return not only bolsters the Yankees' offense but also brings leadership to the clubhouse.
