The Los Angeles Dodgers, which are leading the FA market with strong capital, are also reaching out to trade. There are signs that the trade market will move with a 'big hand'
St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado is on the trade market, and the Dodgers and New York Yankees, who faced each other in this year's World Series, are emerging as candidates.
New Jersey media NJ.com Reporter Randy Miller appeared on WFAN radio on the 1st (Korean etching) and said, "The player who is likely to move to the Yankees is Nolan Arenado of St. Louis. "The Cardinals put Arenado on the trade market, and I think it is possible that it will be made on the condition that they receive multiple prospects and cash from the Yankees." he said.
In addition, the Dodgers are also moving. Journalist Miller said, `I keep hearing that either the Yankees or the Dodgers.' `I think Arenado is from the West and wants to go to the Dodgers more. The Dodgers want him, too."
Arenado is a third baseman with the best defensive skills. Since his debut with the Colorado Rockies in 2013, he has won third baseman Gold Glove for 10 consecutive years until 2022. That doesn't mean the bat's ability is sagging. In 2015 and 2016, he hit 40 consecutive home runs and won five silver sluggers in his career. He has been named an All-Star eight times.

However, at the age of 33 this year, it is evaluated that he still has the ability to expect productivity in offense and defense.
Arenado signed an eight-year, $260 million long-term contract during spring training in 2019 when he was in Colorado. After moving to St. Louis after two seasons in that contract, it was extended to a nine-year contract until 2027. Salaries for the remainder of the year are $32 million in 2025, $27 million in 2026, and $15 million in 2027.

Arenado has trade veto power. However, it is known that if he goes to the Dodgers, he will accept it. After the trade rumors surfaced, Arenado drew attention by posting 'Dodger Blue' sung by Kendrick Lamar on his SNS. It may mean that he wants to go to the Dodgers, but he didn't explain anything else.
