According to MLB insider John Denton, the two sides have continued conversations surrounding an Arenado trade, and one player that the Cardinals have discussed as a potential return in any deal is Red Sox prospect Blaze Jordan.

The Red Sox could move forward with Arenado at third, Devers as their DH and Casas at first base for the three years remaining on Arenado’s contract without disrupting anything related to the development of Campbell, Marcelo Mayer or Roman Anthony. That’s no small thing in the attempt to get more functional.
