The Arizona Diamondbacks have acquired eight-time All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals, it was announced Tuesday.
In return, the Cardinals are getting right-hander Jack Martinez, an eighth-round selection in last year’s draft out of Arizona State.
Arenado, 34, agreed to waive his no-trade clause to complete the deal.
He battled injuries last season while hitting .237 with 12 home runs and a career-low .289 on-base percentage in 107 games with the Cardinals. The 10-time Gold Glove winner has two years left on a nine-year, $275 million contract he originally signed with the Colorado Rockies before the 2019 season.
