Have to offload Contreras and Arenado.
Yet again you forget about the NTC both have and one has made it clear he wants to stay. The other has a list and even if that list was solid it appears his allegiances are a bit flexible.
Now I’m not saying Nado can’t be dealt. It seems we are going to have to eat more salary than what we want to and then prospect load would be minimal. The Yankees had some interest but they were more interested in flipping contracts and us eating money. So much so that the team didn’t even go to Nolan with the offer because it wasn’t to their liking. So it sort of works both ways. Unless both get what they want. Then no deal is happening.
