Nolan Arenado open to switch from third base to first and leaving Cardinals for a team he approves
Associated PressDALLAS — Nolan Arenado is open to a trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, at age 33 wanting to be on a World Series contender. “It’s like his biological clock is ticking,” agent Joel Wolfe said Tuesday at the winter meetings. And he takes it so personal, like it’s all on him.” An eight-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove third baseman, Arenado is open to a switch to first base. Let’s just try and find a place where they’re in a different place,’ where he could just jump in and help the team go to the next level.” Arenado has played 1,629 games in the field during his big league career, all at third base. “If it would make Mo’s job easier to get to the right team, Nolan is more than willing to move around,” Wolfe said, quoting his client as saying, “‘I’m not insulted to go play first and I can win a Gold Glove over there if that’s what it takes.’” “He wanted to be just the first to offer that so that Mo could tell other teams that,” Wolfe said.
