The sell-off has begun for the St. Louis Cardinals, offloading relievers Ryan Helsley and Steven Matz to the New York Mets and Boston Red Sox last night. However, more moves are sure to come for St. Louis as Phil Maton has not traveled to San Diego with the team and could garner significant trade interest. Nolan Arenado rumors seem to have died down, but a surprise trade of a young Cardinals bat could be on the table, as reported by MLB insiders this morning.
Of the three outfielders mentioned, Brendan Donovan, Lars Nootbaar, and Alec Burleson, Nootbaar is perhaps the most likely to be moved at today's trade deadline.
