Nolan Arenado rumor: Rockies 'want to engage' in trade talks with Mets

Jon Morosi of MLB Network reported Wednesday morning that the Colorado Rockies "want to engage" on trade talks with the New York Mets regarding Nolan Arenado. (SNY)

Fantasy Impact:

"The team that I am watching very carefully -- that I was told even this week is the team the Rockies want to engage with -- is the New York Mets," Morosi reported. He adds that Colorado prefers not to trade Arenado to the Dodgers since they play in the same division. A possible deal could be based around Robinson Cano (to offset some of the money), Brandon Nimmo, and a prospect. Of course, the Mets wouldn't be giving up all that much in this hypothetical, which makes it more of a salary dump for the Rockies. Arenado has six years and $199 million remaining on his contract.
