According to league sources, the Astros circled back with the Cardinals after Alex Bregman signed with the Red Sox.

The St. Louis Cardinals certainly tried to trade Nolan Arenado to the Houston Astros throughout the offseason. The two sides came to terms on a deal but Arenado used his no-trade clause to shut it down.

Cardinals Gold Glove winner Nolan Arenado had high praise by manager Oli Marmol about how he's handled the trade rumors.
