Yankees Eyeing Alonso, Cardinals in Trade Talks

The New York Yankees are considering a significant offseason move to acquire slugger Pete Alonso, potentially at the cost of not re-signing ace pitcher Gerrit Cole. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox are eyeing St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Sonny Gray as a potential trade target to enhance their rotation, given the Cardinals' intent to cut payroll. The Cardinals are also exploring cost-effective pitching options like Tampa Bay's Jeffrey Springs as they aim to rejuvenate their roster for the future. In the NFL, the Arizona Cardinals, who are off to a 2-4 start, are contemplating trades involving key players like Budda Baker and James Conner ahead of the trade deadline. Additionally, there's speculation about a potential reunion with New York Jets' Haason Reddick, which could bolster Arizona's pass rush. The Cardinals are well-positioned financially to make impactful moves if necessary.
