The New York Yankees and first baseman Paul Goldschmidt are in agreement on a one-year extension to keep the veteran first baseman in the Bronx, according to multiple reports on Friday.
Contract details are currently unknown. Goldschmidt signed a one-year, $12 million deal with New York last offseason to be its starting first basement, but saw utilityman Ben Rice begin to split starts later in the campaign that even ran into the postseason.
Goldschmidt, 38, played his first season in the American League last season for the Yankees after 14 accomplished years between the Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals. He was the 2022 National League MVP for St. Louis and he earned seven All-Star berths, three Gold Gloves and five Silver Sluggers.
Goldschmidt finished the 2025 season with a .274 batting average, 10 homers, 45 RBIs and 134 hits, numbers that has been slowly declining since his 2022 NL MVP season.
Over 2,074 career games, Goldschmidt has tallied 372 home runs and 1,232 RBIs.
