While there have been speculations of a trade involving Cardinals star Nolan Arenado, add pitcher Sonny Gray to the mix, as there&#8217;s no doubt that this trade deadline will be interesting for the team.<\/p>\n<p>In the latest reporting from Katie Woo of The Athletic, she would say that the team will \u201centertain offers\u201d on Arenado and Gray, though the chances \u201cremain slim.\u201d The reason why the probability is low is that both have full no-trade clauses in each of their contracts, which Arenado reportedly did last offseason, vetoing a deal to the Houston Astros.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSt. Louis will entertain offers on Nolan Arenado and Sonny Gray,\u201d Woo wrote. \u201cBoth players have full no-trade clauses but could be motivated to waive them for the right fit. Mozeliak has started to gauge the interest of a handful of contending teams, though the talks are described as preliminary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe odds of either player being traded before the deadline remain slim, but the Cardinals are financially motivated to move their contracts,\u201d Woo continued. \u201cGray is owed $35 million in 2026, his final guaranteed year of his three-year contract, and Arenado has $31 million (not including deferrals) remaining over the next two seasons.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Reports suggest Sonny Gray, Nolan Arenado likely to stay with Cardinals<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3382041\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3382041\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg?resize=300,168 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg?resize=768,430 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg?resize=1024,573 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sonny-Gray-of-the-St.-Louis-Cardinals.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"Cardinals rumors: St. Louis willing to listen on Nolan Arenado, Sonny Gray trade offers\" width=\"1024\" height=\"573\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3382041\">Jeff Curry-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As the rumors around the Cardinals and Arenado, plus Gray, will continue, Woo would talk about how the third baseman could receive interest from other teams as he&#8217;s as great defensively as he has been in his career. However, his offense has dipped with St. Louis as he has a .239 batting average to go along with 10 home runs and 43 RBIs.<\/p>\n<p>When talking about Gray, the pitcher currently has a 10-4 record while recording a 4.33 ERA and 128 strikeouts. Bob Nightengale of USA Today Sports would report that Gray has \u201cno interest\u201d in waiving his no-trade clause, though that was from late June, meaning feelings can change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRival teams would love to get their hands on Cardinals starters Sonny Gray and Miles Mikolas, but they have full no-trade clauses, and have no interest in waiving them,\u201d Nightengale wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The MLB insider would also write about Arenado and how St. Louis is prepared to keep him through the trade deadline, as there hasn&#8217;t been \u201cstrong interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Cardinals are planning on keeping third baseman Nolan Arenado through the deadline with no teams showing strong interest in him since he rejected potential deals to the Houston Astros and Los Angeles Angels,\u201d Nightengale wrote.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen how active the Cardinals will be before the trade deadline and if any deal involves Arenado or Gray.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest report suggests that the Cardinals are open to listening to offers when it comes to Nolan Arenado and Sonny Gray.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":71480,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[44,48,272,262,263,72],"class_list":["post-71479","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb","tag-mlb","tag-mlb-rumors","tag-mlb-trade-deadline","tag-nolan-arenado","tag-sonny-gray","tag-st-louis-cardinals"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
