However, Arenado's perspective on a move to Houston could change. The Astros hold the lead in the AL West, while the Cardinals continue to fight to stay in playoff contention in the National League. St. Louis is 3.5 games behind the San Diego Padres for the last Wild Card spot.

But Arenado's name coming up is very interesting for Houston. In the offseason, the 10-time Gold Glover had a trade lined up to send him to Houston, but he shut down the trade, vetoing it with his no-trade clause.

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado reportedly might experience a change of scenery ahead of the trade deadline.
