Even in his third time returning to Chase Field, there’s always a sense of homecoming for Paul Goldschmidt.
The current St. Louis Cardinals first baseman spent 10 years with the Arizona Diamondbacks’ organization and still sees familiar faces around the stadium, even if most aren’t on the field anymore.
His efforts have helped the Cardinals stay on top of the National League Central with career highs in batting average , on-base percentage , and slugging percentage . Goldschmidt got acquainted with one of the top prospects from Arizona when former Phoenix Sandra Day O’Connor High School standout Nolan Gorman made his MLB debut with the Cardinals this season. Gorman watched Goldschmidt’s tenure with the Diamondbacks as a fan and was in attendance during the playoffs in 2017. “I remember hearing his name when he was in high school getting drafted and he’s played great for us this year. He’s stepped in and he’s learned some different positions over his career.
Given his abilities as a consistent player, he could prolong his career even more. But for him, going to 42 years old like his teammate, Albert Pujols, is something he doesn’t see in his future.
