Nolan Arenado REJECTS Trade To Astros...Will We EVER See An Arenado Trade?

[@PHN-2024]

The Cardinals Traded for Nolan Arenado and Accepted His Contract so they Should be Forced to Fully Honor it entirely which means “No Trade”.

[@snix7613]

The fact that LAA is in his OK list is mildly entertaining 😂

[@CautionHighWavesAhead-]

He'll be much better than Anthony Rendón but yeah, I know. He doesn't care too much about winning. Lol.

[@derekconstantino7759]

Maybe just maybe it's because he grew up in OC... wow crazy

[@BillAldoCD]

St Louis has to eat alot of money before a trade will get done with any teams he has approved!!!

[@jeremyhopwood5822]

Nolan Aranado didn't want to be a Houston TrAshtro! I respect him so much for that! That's something Dodgers fans can get on board with!

[@Markmen-cw8dj]

Nah the 2017 scandal still living up there in the dome? That was 6 years ago buddy and the only players on that team who are currently Astros are Altuve and McCullers. Altuve was one of the few who didnt partake and McCullers is a pitcher

[@victorfuentes2631]

@@Markmen-cw8djlol didn’t altuve want to use a buzzard instead for hearing the bang of trash cans 🚮?? He was definitely participated in cheating

[@victorfuentes2631]

The Astros will always be known as a team that cheated . That’s sad for that organization and its fans

@@victorfuentes2631I don’t see you trashing the white Sox for what they did

[@kengoetz4567]

Maybe the Cardinals should offer Arenado a no play option in St. Louis for 2025 if he decides to block trades when they were willing to pony up $15-20M to Houston.

[@brucedavis6244]

Id Love the dodgers too trade for him I've wanted him for year

[@alextanguay5886]

He’s holding out for a Jays trade 😂

[@PHN-2024]

Because Tornado Will part of the United States soon.

[@victorfuentes2631]

Dodgers fan here …I like that trade that Jim came up with . I want Arenado on the dodgers at 3rd base and muncy at 2nd. Mookie at shortstop. Trade lux for pitching and prospects

[@Fishermanmike1979]

@BALLCAP Sports it made no sense for Houston to trade for Arenado. They might as well just sign a short term contact to Breggman

[@MIKELIN8]

When this was reported on Twitter, the writer said that Arenado's choice is tho be traded to the Dodgers.

[@hunggiang1475]

Astros gonna miss that 11 hr he bring.

[@dsinsocal]

They *have* to say Muncy is their 3Bman because saying otherwise would destroy Lux's trade value.

[@scottyc1093]

Houston just dodged a bullet with his declining azz.

[@hepatitiscyalater7269]

If Arenado was truly a Dodgers fan he would have accepted that trade and just sabotaged Houston from the inside with his mediocre play

[@kengoetz4567]

The Cardinals want to play Nolan Gorman at 3B in 2025. This is about much more than a salary dump. From the reporting, they are willing to pay $15-20M to trade Arenado.

[@davidcobler5705]

Cards will have to send a barrel of cash to move him and I believe they will!

[@gregdiamond6023]

The Cardinals gave up nothing to get him. Now it has come back to bite them in the ass.

[@verbalkint5450]

Re: LAD trade, yes CTaylor has only one year left. But Nolan has 3,, with the big contract. Why would Dodgers want to be on the hook for all that, for a declining superstar?

[@1rayljr]

Traded or not...... Arenado will have a much better season in 2025. The Cardinals have a new hitting coach and have expanded coaching and tools though out the organization. The majority of the team saw offensive decline the last season and a half. There was a problem within.

[@brucedavis6244]

It's about the money so if The cards want to trade him they will eat Good amount

[@ericmausbach1808]

Astros fans: Yeeeeessss!!!

[@whlewis9164]

Did the Cardinals get rid of Marmol yet?

[@derekconstantino7759]

Dodgers dont want or need him, he's old news. He was good 3 years ago and has regressed badly

[@Strattbatt]

I looked at his stats, and I believe he is actually better than muncy. Even the last couple seasons. I thought Muncy was better, but when I actually did my research I was proven wrong.

[@hepatitiscyalater7269]

@@StrattbattYou probably looked at Arenado’s career stats. Muncy’s has had better underlying offensive metrics than Arenado the last 2 years. Defensively Arenado is way better but offensively Max Muncy is superior than Arenado at this stage. Max Muncy has always had more power, and hit the ball harder than Arenado has. Muncy better at getting on base as well

[@Strattbatt]

@@hepatitiscyalater7269 No, I looked at his stats from last year and a couple years before that on baseball reference. He had about a 270 batting average which is about 50 or 60 points better than Max Muncy’s. Nolan Arenado also had the same amount of Homers as muncy this last year. The only big offensive stat that I see that could possibly say that Muncy is better would be his On base Percentage. Which is really high because of how much Muncy walks.

why do teams give out a no trade? it's the dumbest thing ever

[@True2blue71]

[@jamesstinedurf9841]

@@True2blue71 for who? it only really benefits the player

[@johnvonjasper7893]

It is in the collective bargaining agreement and called 10-5 rights. A player qualifies with 10 years of service time with 5 consecutive years the same team.

[@dennishaas4745]

See anything familiar ? The Cardinals Front Office is a rudderless ship , Arenado will just be the next player the Cardinals give away and get nothing just to dump a salary !

[@kevinr9943]

Trading Arenado is more than just a salary dump though. It also opens up AB's for Gorman, Sagesse, Donovan & possibly Burleson. I'd rather watch those guys sink or swim, than see Arenado pout, sulk, throw tantrums & struggle all while bringing 0 leadership.

[@tke7749]

Bohm for Arenado. it's that simple

[@Kong-kg6ij]

Good this would have been a very bad trade for the Astros

[@Markmen-cw8dj]

I agree Arenado is washed

[@Mr1stcat]

Good for Arenado he doesn't want to be on a team of lowly cheating scoundrels 👍

[@cody0010]

Can't blame him for not wanting to go to the Trashtros.

[@Liquidswords19]

Nolan is a million times times better than bum Bregman and Paredes(combined) He'll eventually come to Houston. Can't wait.

[@Markmen-cw8dj]

No he isn’t, Arenado was barely a league average hitter and his defense is starting to decline

[@Liquidswords19]

@Markmen-cw8dj Nolan had a higher batting average than Bregman and Paredes last year. He had more hits than Bregman and Paredes last year. He's also(and still)proven at third base. Winning multi gold gloves through out the years On the other hand, Bregman only has 1 gold glove and didn't deserve to win a Gold Glove last year, either. There were more third basemen who were more deservingly qualified to win it but they only gave it to Bregman because they felt sorry for him for not winning a Gold Glove yet. Lol
