Though reports of Nolan Arenado’s availability initially seemed far-fetched, there is a growing belief that he’ll be moved in the next few weeks. Several teams have been mentioned as having interest, including the Cubs, but MLB.com’s Jon Morosi reported Sunday that the Cardinals have emerged in talks for the superstar third baseman.
That fits with what Bruce Levine shared on 670 The Score Saturday afternoon, when he named righties Dakota Hudson and Carlos Martinez, outfielder Tyler O’Neill, and recently acquired pitching prospect Matt Liberatore as the return being discussed. Morosi mentioned Hudson and Liberatore as well, but added highly-touted third base prospect Nolan Gorman as someone in whom the Rockies are interested.
