There are three certainties in this world: death, taxes, and rumors about the Cardinals trading for Nolan Arenado. Every year without fail digital inked is spilled on this topic and it is never hard to understand why. It is something fantastical. We just want something wild to happen.
The most recent rumors have been fueled by reports that the Cardinals players are discussing the move, which seems... unusual? I have no idea how much insight the players have into these types of decisions, but before this I would guess not much. Maybe they are just bored too and they are applying my technique of repeating rumors until they manifest into something true.
