The St. Louis Cardinals are contemplating a rebuild, which may involve trading some veteran players, including ace Sonny Gray. Despite his no-trade clause, Gray has been linked to the Atlanta Braves as a potential replacement for Max Fried. The Braves are seeking experienced pitchers who can provide solid production while their top prospects develop.

With two years remaining on his $75 million contract, Gray's future with the Cardinals remains uncertain as the team navigates its roster decisions.
