Paul Goldschmidt turns 37 years old on Sept. 10 and has already said he plans to play again in 2025. His St. Louis contract expires after this season.
During the first three months of the season, it looked like Goldy was succumbing to a severe aging curve. At that point, it was easy to just write him off and declare that it was time for the Cardinals to move on and come up with a new plan at first base.
