Nolan Arenado may be returning to the St. Louis Cardinals next season after reports indicated that the New York Yankees were unwilling to take on

The St. Louis Cardinals and third baseman Nolan Arenado agreed at the beginning of the offseason that it was in both party's best interest to move on. Arenado's agent, Joel Wolfe, was given permission to seek a trade for his client.
