D-backs look to rest Goldy more next season

SAN FRANCISCO -- It might not make him happy, but it sounds like D-backs first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is going to get more days off in 2016.

"His numbers obviously tailed off," D-backs manager Chip Hale said. "Physically, you have to wear down. It's 162 games and he plays almost every day. We'll have a lot of discussions next year on where we can strategically give him days off physically."

Aside from missing a pair of games at the beginning of September for the birth of his son, Goldschmidt has only had one full game off this year.
