With Nolan Arendao locked into six more seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals, it is likely the team will make a playoff push. The perennial All-Star will likely not opt out of his contract, as the Cardinals have over $100 million left to pay him. While Arenado locked himself into six more years, the Cardinals also made some trades to improve their roster. They traded away top prospects Angel Rondon, Luken Baker, Jhon Torres, and Austin Gomber.
