Mets: David Wright was everything a baseball player should be

David Wright will likely retire at the end of the 2018 season. On Thursday, we learned that he will be activated for the final homestand of the year and start at third base for the New York Mets on Saturday, September 29.

Wright hasn’t played an MLB game since May of 2016, making this comeback one of the most anticipated in sports. Even for as brief as we all know it will be, it’s nice to see the Captain return for one final game.

In life, it’s rare to find someone like Wright.
