Despite speculation surrounding a trade for Nolan Arenado during the offseason, he remains with the St. Louis Cardinals as spring training begins. Katie Woo's article highlights past reports and new insights regarding Arenado's no-trade clause and his willingness to waive it for five specific teams: Yankees, Dodgers, Padres, Red Sox, and Astros. However, interest from those teams dwindled, particularly from the Yankees and Dodgers, leaving the Cardinals to retain Arenado amid his considerations of a potential move to Houston, which ultimately did not materialize primarily due to roster concerns.
