St. Louis Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. provided some clarity on Nolan Arenado's ongoing trade-request drama.

As it appears likely that Nolan Arenado will stay with the St. Louis Cardinals, multiple young players are left in limbo. At the beginning of the offseason, the Cardinals announced a “re-tool“, focusing on trimming payroll and internal development.

Veteran St. Louis Cardinals slugger Nolan Arenado's name has been in the news ever since the Cardinal's front office revealed they were open to trading the eight-time All-Star earlier this 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. He would like to add to the bullpen/maybe a RH-bat, but won’t before they have clarity on Arenado’s future.

Cardinals chairman Bill DeWitt Jr. spoke with reporters on Monday afternoon to conclude the organization’s Winter Warm-Up weekend. Unsurprisingly, he touched on the team’s biggest offseason storyline: the Nolan Arenado trade discussions.

Mozeliak thought he had a trade made in December sending Arenado to the Astros, but the third baseman blocked the deal.

Nolan Arenado has been linked to a number of teams this offseason. The multiple Gold Glove-winning third baseman is still going strong and a move away from St.

There hasn't been much chatter since a deal fell apart with Houston, and that has kept the Cardinals from moving forward on other signings they want to make.
