David Wright Retirement
Was hard to watch his press conference today and not get emotional. I realize he's a young guy (in life) and is retiring with a nest egg any of us would love to have. But watching an athlete's body break down in public, as they all do, despite how hard they want it to be otherwise, is always sad and very poignant. For many of us into the sport, you mark the passage of your own life by remember how young these guys were and how they once seemingly could defy gravity and do things we could only dream of. Then you watch them get old and its a stark reminder that you're only a young guy for a while. Seems like Wright and Reyes were rookies yesterday.
Wright was an excellent player and is seemingly a good person. I wish him the best.
