If the St. Louis Cardinals still plan to trade third baseman Nolan Arenado this offseason, they now need to pivot.
The Boston Globe's Alex Speier reported Wednesday that the Cardinals were back at the bargaining table with the Boston Red Sox for a potential Arenado trade. However, several hours after that report, the Red Sox agreed to sign star infielder Alex Bregman to a three-year deal worth $120 million—thus likely putting an end to any Arenado-to-Boston rumors.
