The St. Louis Cardinals have traded third baseman Nolan Arenado and $31 million in cash considerations to the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for minor-league right-hander Jack Martinez. The deal, announced on Tuesday, marks a key step in the Cardinals' rebuild under president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom. Arenado, a 10-time Gold Glove winner, waived his no-trade clause to join Arizona, where he is expected to anchor the infield defense.
Nolan Arenado invoked his no-trade clause in December 2024 to block a potential move from the St. Louis Cardinals to the Houston Astros, citing family priorities and team uncertainties. In a recent interview, he described his current trade to the Arizona Diamondbacks as a straightforward choice due to its closeness to home and the team's young talent. Arenado expressed optimism about rediscovering his form in Arizona after a challenging 2025 season.
