Nolan Arenado of the St. Louis Cardinals participated in an exhibition game against the New York Yankees amid trade rumors. He went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts but emphasized that his appearance wasn't about showcasing himself for potential trade suitors. Instead, he wanted to reconnect with friends on the Yankees and get some early-season at-bats. Despite struggling at the plate, he expressed readiness to play more, indicating that his physical condition is good, but he is still working on his timing.
I didn't come here for that. Day 3 of spring training. That wouldn't be a good day to showcase myself. I'm not ready for that.
My body is ready for it. I'm ready for nine. My timing (at the plate) is not.
