According to league sources, the Astros circled back with the Cardinals after Alex Bregman signed with the Red Sox.

Cardinals Gold Glove winner Nolan Arenado had high praise by manager Oli Marmol about how he's handled the trade rumors.

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.
