No, it’s not an existential crisis fellow 30-somethings, players our age are just suddenly retiring.
Buster Posey has been a longtime favorite of mine. We are just less than three months apart in age, so I had the privilege of watching him throughout my 20’s and into my 30’s.
With a career spanning back to 2008, and a rise of the San Francisco Giants for quite some time, Posey’s sudden retirement hit the hearts of many millennials. Love or hate the Giants, Posey seems to be one of those players that had the respect of baseball fans all over.
