Nolan Arenado has officially been traded to the St. Louis Cardinals.
While this may seem like old news, nothing is done until it passes the desk of the league office. For the St. Louis Cardinals, it wasn’t until late Monday night that third baseman Nolan Arenado was officially a member of the Cardinals.
While the deal was first reported Friday night, it took a weekend and then some to work out the fine details of this extremely complex trade.
