Better late than never -- the Best Podcast in Baseball and the St. Louis Cardinals. The planned brand new episode of BPIB had to be shelved as news broke that the heretofore idle Cardinals, once again, had re-engaged with the Colorado Rockies about third baseman and uber-star Nolan Arenado. After years of being a recurring topic in BPIB, what was different this time? The trade happened, for starters. The Cardinals pulled off one of the biggest trades in their history, and certainly the most complicated. To make sense of it, get to know Arenado, and learn how the Rockies got to the point where they would pay their best player to leave and play for another team, BPIB turns to Jenny Cavnar, pre- and post-game host for the Rockies' games on AT&T Sportsnet in Denver. A Denver-area native, Cavnar has covered Arenado was the minors to being one of the best players in the majors. Along with BPIB host Derrick Goold, Cavnar talks about how the best could be ahead for Arenado and how behind him Coors Field echoes with questions. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design, is produced by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
