Paul Goldschmidt Making the Start in Game 4 of ALDS on Wednesday
Paul Goldschmidt is making the start at first base on Wednesday over Ben Rice in Game 4 of the American League Division Series against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays, with right-hander Louis Varland serving as an opener in what will be a bullpen game for the Jays. Manager Aaron Boone explained that he wanted more balance in the lineup in Toronto's bullpen game. Goldy is batting sixth against Varland as the Yanks look to stave off elimination for a second straight day. This will be the 38-year-old's first start in the ALDS and his second of the 2025 playoffs. In his eight plate appearances over five games in the postseason so far this year, Goldschmidt has been hot, with four hits, a run scored, and a strikeout. He did not record a hit in his only career plate appearance against Varland.
