The Cardinals of St. Louis acquired Colorado Rockies superstar Nolan Arenado in a monster deal that sends a pack of five players to the Colorado Rockies, including left-hander Austin Gomber, third base prospect Elehuris Montero, infielder Mateo Gil and right-handed pitcher Tony Locey and Jake Sommers. The Rockies also agreed to send about $ 50 million to the cardinals to help pay future salaries for the Arenado. The Cardinals then took $ 15 million from the deal and added another year to Arenado’s current contract. In addition, Arenado will keep its waiver clause after the 2021 and 2022 seasons, as well as its full trading clause.
