Cardinals ink 5 year $130M extension for Goldschmidt - That means at least 6 seasons as a Card [View all]

I am a happy fan today. #allthesmileys

At 26 mill per year, if he performs at his average pace, Goldie is still underpaid in this market, but he's in a worlds better position than he was...

Because he signed an extension early in his career at Arizona saying he wanted the sure thing - stability not risk.

Turns out he was more than a promising young player - he was a perennial all star and he cost himself some real money with that deal. This one sorta balances it out...

Be that as it may be, the Cardinals seem to believe that he'll be worth it well into his 30s and I am glad for both the team and for Goldie

Here's to hoping he stays healthy
