Full disclosure, this is not a Jeff Passan rumor. This is a Twitter account of a small Cardinals-centric media company. But, they do seem to have a fairly good track record, and it was rumored early on by the national writers in the offseason that the Cardinals - who tried to trade Sonny Gray during the season only to be thwarted by his no-trade clause - wanted to do a little rebuilding and cost-cutting. So, the rumor below does make some sense:
There’s a few teams calling from the AL central calling on Steven Matz but some signs point that they’re using that as a door opening to see if Cardinals will unload Fedde.
