This offseason is shaping up to be an interesting one for the Cardinals. They’ve already expressed interest in both Sonny Gray and Aaron Nola, both of whom would give them a true ace in the hole for the rotation.
The Cardinals have the money to sign them both, and based on comments by Bill DeWitt III on how they want to make sure 2023 is a blip on the radar screen, I’m cautiously optimistic that they’ll at least be able to land one of them.
To me, those are the best two options. Blake Snell would be a great fit too, but I see the most value in Gray and Nola, personally.
