All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado has a very pragmatic outlook when thinking about the possibility he could be traded by the St. Louis Cardinals.
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Arenado said he understands the reality of playing for a last-place team that might look to make changes before the Aug. 1 trade deadline.
"It is a business, right?" he said. "I've been traded once. I think that shocked a lot of people at that time. I guess it doesn't surprise me anywhere what happens in this game. It would still be surprising seeing some things happen.
