Reports have indicated that St. Louis Cardinals’ third baseman Nolan Arenado would consider waiving his no-trade clause this offseason. There would not be a shortage of teams interested in his services.

The Philadelphia Phillies, Los Angeles Dodgers, and several other teams would be good fits for the eight-time All-Star. While Arenado has not been able to put up spectacular numbers these past two years, he is still a Gold-Glove candidate with at least league-average offense.
is offseason. There would not be a shortage of teams interested in his services.vvvvv
The complicating factors in trading Nado would be his no-trade clause, something that he may be interested in waiving given the right fit, and the money he’s owed these next three years. He’s owed a total of $74 million over these next three years, but the Colorado Rockies will still kick in $5 million in 2025 and 2026, and there are some deferments attached to his contract.
Aside from the Phillies and Dodgers, there is one team that could benefit tremendously by trading for Nolan Arenado: The Houston Astros.
Since 2016, Alex Bregman has manned the hot corner for the Houston Astros. He’s been a part of two world championship teams, and he has a Gold Glove and Silver Slugger award to boot. While he hasn’t been as dominant as Arenado has been in the last eight years, Bregman was still a top-five third baseman in the league during that time.
