A former Cardinals MVP is heading up to New York.

The Yankees have agreed to a one-year, $12.5MM deal with Paul GoldschmidtJack Curry of YES Network was the first to report that the two sides were in agreement, while Bob Nightengale of USA Today added the dollar value of the contract.

Goldschmidt, 37, has been among the most consistent hitters of his generation. He combines power and patience, hitting .289/.381/.510 with 362 home runs over a 14-year career. His four Gold Gloves were earned through a deftness at first, and between his time in Arizona and St. Louis, Goldschmidt was a beloved figure.

His regression following his 2022 MVP season has been well-documented, especially in St. Louis, who now watch as Goldschmidt heads to the defending AL Pennant-winning Bronx Bombers.

The deal, which is pending a physical, will give New York hope Goldy can thrive in Yankees lineup that also includes Bellinger, two-time MVP Aaron JudgeGiancarlo StantonJazz Chisholm Jr., Austin WellsAnthony Volpe and rookie Jasson Dominguez.
