Paul Goldschmidt Intends to Continue Playing After Yankees Playoff Exit

Following the New York Yankees' ALDS elimination, 39-year-old veteran Paul Goldschmidt expressed a desire to continue playing next season, stating "I love competing." Goldschmidt will become an unrestricted free agent after posting a .765 OPS with 18 home runs and 52 RBIs across 105 games during the regular season. Playing primarily as a platoon bat under a one-year, $4 million contract, he went 0-for-6 during the postseason before New York was swept by Tampa Bay.
