Wainwright is back. 1 year deal worth $8 million guarantees, not including incentives. Our first free agent signing of the year and the very last MLB team to do so. [Reply]
BREAKING: Cardinals have agreed to acquire Nolan Arenado from Rockies, sources tell @TheAthletic. Deal pending approval from both MLB and players’ union; Rockies sending Cardinals significant cash, believed to be in $50M range, and Arenado will be deferring money.

Holy shit, is this really happening?! I live in Denver and Arenado has been my favorite player for years. Always dreamt of him playing in St. Louis but never thought it’d be a reality! Rolen 2.0. Front office, thank you [Reply]
Really thought this was yet another leaked story to make it look like they were trying. With $50M being kicked in I’m a bit worried about how much they have up and haven’t seen anything on it yet. [Reply]

Reports are Gomber, Baker, Torres. Not a whole lot to give up. [Reply]
So with the $50 million back, it’ll be less than $25 AAV, which is very reasonable. And the highest rated player we are trading away is number nine in our system. Holy shit, did we actually finally win a trade for a future hall of famer?! [Reply]
