Cardinals in discussions with Rockies about possible trade involving Nolan Arenado

Could one of the best third baseman in the majors find himself on a new team by the start of the 2021 MLB season? Well, it’s becoming a definite possibility.

According to reports, the Colorado Rockies and St. Louis Cardinals in discussions with Rockies about a possible trade involving superstar third baseman Nolan Arenado. Although nothing is guaranteed, it appears that the Rockies have been more engaged with the idea of shipping Arenado elsewhere than in previous years. The Atlanta Braves have also checked in on his availability, but we don’t know how far those discussions went.

Arenado, 29, has spent his entire MLB career with the Rockies organization. Over a span of eight seasons, he has posted a combined .293 batting average, .890 OPS, 235 homers and 760 RBI. He has also been selected to five MLB All-Star games, and has eight gold glove awards, four platinum glove awards and four sliver slugger awards under his belt.
