"Arenado invoked his no-trade clause last offseason, turning down a deal to the Houston Astros, but Bloom indicated the time is right for him to move on. "We're on the same page with Nolan," Bloom said. Arenado, whom Bloom called a "Hall of Fame player," is an eight-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove winner, but he hasn't earned either of those honors the past two seasons."
""We've definitely been listening on him," Bloom said. "He's still one of the better pitchers in the league. With where we are and thinking long term ... we feel like there might be something there that makes sense. We'll continue to explore that." Gray, 36, went 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA last year while making every start for the Cardinals. That durability is attractive to teams,"
Nolan Arenado, 34, battled injuries last season, hitting .237 with 12 home runs and a career-low .289 on-base percentage in 107 games. He has two years remaining on a nine-year, $275 million contract that originally began with the Colorado Rockies before 2019. The Cardinals plan to find a different fit for Arenado and are pursuing trade options, despite his eight All-Star selections and 10 Gold Gloves. Sonny Gray, 36, went 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA while making every start; his durability appeals to teams and he appears more willing to allow a trade this offseason.
