## Resource

The St. Louis Cardinals are defying expectations, surging into playoff contention despite being in the midst of a rebuild — and Sonny Gray might be the biggest casualty of that surprise run. After trading Gray to Boston for two pitchers, rumors swirl that Gray could be headed back to St. Louis, especially since the Red Sox are tanking while the Cardinals are contending. But with Gray’s no-trade clause waived and the Cardinals’ rebuild still in its first year, trading for him would derail long-term plans. Plus, Gray’s likely a free agent by season’s end — making a rental trade a risky move. The Cardinals are poised to be deadline darlings, but a Gray return? Not happening.
