If you happened to hop off of social media after dinner on Monday you might have missed one of the stranger developments regarding a player on the trade market that has been seen in recent years. Nolan Arenado, who has spent all offseason having his name bantered around trade rumors many of which include the Texas Rangers, was abruptly pulled off the market by Rockies GM Jeff Bridich.
In a story from the Denver Post, Bridich commented on Nolan Arenado’s future with the Rockies noting that he had listened to offers from various teams but none were of the quality to part with the perennial Gold Glove third baseman.
