Nolan Arenado Reportedly Eager to Join Boston Red Sox Amid Trade Talks

The St. Louis Cardinals and Boston Red Sox have renewed discussions about a potential deal for the star third baseman, though no agreement has been finalized.

Nolan Arenado is reportedly 'highly, highly motivated' to join the Boston Red Sox, according to sources close to the player.
The Red Sox and Cardinals have recently re-engaged in trade discussions, with Cardinals executive Chaim Bloom leveraging his knowledge of Boston's prospects.
Boston's interest in Arenado could impact their pursuit of free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman, who is seeking a longer contract than Boston is reportedly willing to offer.
Arenado's performance dipped in 2024, with 16 home runs and a .272 batting average, sparking questions about whether he can return to his previous MVP-caliber form.
If a trade occurs, it could involve the Red Sox parting with first baseman Triston Casas and potentially reshuffling their infield lineup to accommodate Arenado.
