The interesting part is that the trip from the Cardinals' spring training site, Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium in Jupiter, Fla., to the Yankees' site is roughly three hours, quite the commute for a player of Arenado's stature at this early juncture in the spring.

Arenado, 33, is now “considering a potential deal to Houston” after the team improved its roster over the last couple of months, per MLB.com. In the deal that got killed in December, the Cardinals were set to send $15-20 million to the Astros for Arenado, who is owed $74 million over the next three years.

The New York Yankees still need to add help in the infield and a recent blockbuster trade idea would help them quite a bit.

The New York Yankees have a need at third base but MLB insider Jon Heyman explains why a deal is unlikely to happen.

The St. Louis Cardinals certainly tried to trade Nolan Arenado to the Houston Astros throughout the offseason. The two sides came to terms on a deal but Arenado used his no-trade clause to shut it down.
