Nolan Arenado's Instagram Post Sparks Trade Speculation

On Sunday, Nolan Arenado sent baseball fans into a frenzy with an Instagram post featuring Kendrick Lamar's song "Dodger Blue." The eight-time All-Star and Southern California native is reportedly on the trade block, leading to speculation that he might be wearing Dodger Blue next season.

However, MLB Network insider Jon Paul Morosi mentioned on Tuesday that while the post was "interesting," he considers the Dodgers to be "somewhere on the periphery" of potential landing spots for Arenado. Morosi highlighted three teams that seem to be more likely suitors: the Boston Red Sox, San Diego Padres, and Detroit Tigers.

​The Red Sox could create a spot for Arenado by moving Rafael Devers to first base. Meanwhile, the Padres might be interested if they trade infielder Luis Arraez. The Tigers, who are looking for right-handed bats, have also been linked to free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman.
