Even though it eventually happens to everyone, it’s still sad to see a baseball great on his last legs. We watched it play out with Blue Jays’ legend Jose Bautista last year during his final season in Toronto, and despite an attempt to extend his career with the Atlanta Braves, it looks like this might be the end for “Joey Bats”.
I’d be surprised if the 37 year old and his agent didn’t keep looking for another team that could use his services, but considering how his free agency went this winter, it’s going to be a difficult task.
