Cardinals interested in trading for Mike Moustakas

Royals fans are prepared to see Mike Moustakas traded. But are they prepared to see him on the other side of the state?

The St. Louis Cardinals have “renewed interest” in Mike Moustakas, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. There were rumors the Cardinals were interested in Moustakas last winter, although no reports they ever made an offer to the then-free agent. However, St. Louis already has a pretty solid third baseman in Matt Carpenter, who has out-hit Moustakas this year. So how does Moose fit in?

According to Rosenthal, Carpenter may move to second base to replace the struggling Kolten Wong.
