A blockbuster trade proposal has the Cardinals trading star third baseman Nolan Arenado to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Nolan Arenado is being aggressively shopped by the St. Louis Cardinals, and while the Dodgers haven't been linked to him yet, they can't be counted out. Ethan Hyatt of Just Baseball listed Los Angeles as a landing spot for the eight-time All-Star.

The Major League Baseball offseason charges on, just a day after news broke that Roki Sasaki has agreed to sign with the Dodgers. Plenty of quality free agents remain (free agent tracker) and there's always the trade market.

The St. Louis Cardinals might not have predicted that it would be so challenging to trade superstar third baseman Nolan Arenado before heading into the offseason.

“John Mozeliak says trading Nolan Arenado remains ‘Priority 1, 2 and 3' but acknowledges the team remains in a holding pattern due to the FA market.

As the MLB offseason heats up, St. Louis Cardinals' star Nolan Arenado is reportedly close to a deal that could see him suiting up for the Boston Red Sox in 2025.

The Red Sox need a right-handed power hitter and have been connected to both third basemen. But both players are imperfect fits.

If Boston and St. Louis cannot come to terms on a trade, MLB insider Jon Morosi points to two surprise teams. He could see the Detroit Tigers or Seattle Mariners reaching out to the Cardinals.

In parts of four seasons with St. Louis, Arenado has a slash line of .271/.328/.470/.797, with 125 doubles, six triples, 106 home runs, and 372 RBIs in 2,288 plate appearances.
