A recent MLB.com story pegged the Diamondbacks as one of the most likely destinations for St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado. What would it take to get Arenado, and how much does he have left in the tank? We also discuss a new report from JP Morosi that the chances of a Ketel Marte trade are "at least 50-50." Morosi also notes that the Toronto Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies are among the teams that have checked in. Could there be a potential fit with the Blue Jays or Phillies? Finally, we discuss Taiwanese pitching prospect Jo Hsi Hsu. Could he be a budget-friendly option for the D-backs this offseason?

Did The Mariners Overpay For Josh Naylor?
Former Diamondbacks first baseman signed back with the Seattle Mariners for a reported five years and $92.5 million. Given Naylor's power regression, did the Mariners pay too much? We also reflect on Naylor's short but memorable Diamondbacks career. Meanwhile, we ponder a larger D-backs offseason question: Should they consider a quick rebuild? We discuss what that would look like and why it might serve the D-backs well even if it's unlikely. Finally, we react to an under-the-radar D-backs roster move and Corbin Carroll joining Team USA for the 2026 World Baseball Classic.
