The St. Louis Cardinals almost certainly will trade third baseman Nolan Arenado before the calendar flips to 2025; president of baseball operations John Mozeliak expressed confidence in a deal getting done.
OK, Cardinals fans ... what is your opinion of Arenado's four seasons in St. Louis? And what is your opinion on the four seasons that Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt played together as Cardinal teammates?
The first two seasons were good. The Cardinals made the playoffs both years and won the division with 93 victories in 2022. The 2022 Cardinals were stronger than the 2021 Cardinals because the starting pitching was much stronger in '22 -- especially after Mozeliak acquired Jordan Montgomery and Jose Quinata at the trade deadline.
But the 2021 and 2022 Cardinals were failures offensively in both postseasons, going 0-3 and scoring four lousy runs in 27 innings. Arenado and Goldschmidt were a big part of the problem, going 2 for 22 with seven strikeouts in the three games.
Goldschmidt is gone, and Arenado soon will be. Not a single postseason win as teammates in St. Louis. And in their final two seasons together, 2023 and 2024, the Cardinals ranked 22nd overall and 11th in the NL in winning percentage. What went wrong? How do assign blame? What is your verdict?
As always, thanks for watching.
