The Yankees have been connected in trade rumors to Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado throughout the offseason, but the veteran third baseman told reporters on Wednesday that he didn't view his spring training game against New York was a "showcase" of any sort.

Complicating matters is the full-no trade clause in Arenado's deal. The eight-time All-Star reportedly had a list of teams, including the Los Angeles Dodgers, Angels, San Diego Padres, Philadelphia Phillies, New York Mets and Boston Red Sox, that he would be willing to approve a trade to.

Cardinals star third baseman Nolan Arenado has been on the trading block since the winter and drove across the state of Florida to play a spring traning game Wednesday against the Yankees, who may be interested before the regular season begins.
