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.
