As the MLB offseason continues, Cardinals SP Sonny Gray is not convinced the Birds are in a rebuild, despite rumors of a Nolan Arenado trade.

Coming off an up-and-down first season with the St. Louis Cardinals, Sonny Gray stood firm on remaining part of the organization, even as the Cardinals navigate the early stages of a cost-cutting, roster-shaking reset.

“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. He would like to add to the bullpen/maybe a RH-bat, but won’t before they have clarity on Arenado’s future,” Katie Woo of The Athletic wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
