Paul Goldschmidt, Nolan Arenado Won’t Play in Toronto Due to Vaccine Mandate

Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado are the latest players who will be unable to play in Toronto due to not being vaccinated against COVID-19. Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said those two players will miss this weekend’s series vs. the Blue Jays.

Goldschmidt and Arenado are the biggest names so far to be forced to miss a series in Toronto without a vaccine. The other All-Star to miss a Blue Jays series in Toronto this year was Andrew Benintendi, who was one of 10 Royals who couldn’t play in Canada.
