The St. Louis Cardinals: Facing Familiar Territory with No-Trade Clauses
The St. Louis Cardinals find themselves in a familiar predicament as they did during the previous offseason. Just like before, the team has a handful of players with no-trade clauses. However, this time around, the Cardinals had a different plan in mind.
During the past offseason, the Cardinals made it known that they wanted to “reset” their team. But, their plans were quickly altered when key players such as Sonny Gray, Willson Contreras, Miles Mikolas, and Nolan Arenado expressed their desire to stay with the team.
As the trade deadline approaches, the spotlight is on Contreras and his no-trade clause. In an interview with MLB.com’s John Denton, Contreras made it crystal clear that he has no intention of leaving the Cardinals anytime soon.
“I’m not going anywhere,” Contreras stated firmly, putting any trade rumors to rest.
The Cardinals may have to rethink their “reset” strategy as they navigate through the trade deadline with players who are determined to stay put. Only time will tell how this situation will play out for the St. Louis Cardinals.
