The St. Louis Cardinals will almost certainly aim to trade their star closer, Ryan Helsley, before he lands in free agency at the end of the season. Spotrac projects Helsley to sign for $81 million in free agency next winter and the Cardinals will almost certainly let him go at that price. With that in mind, finding the perfect suitor for Helsley should be at the top of the priority list for the Cardinals. Kristie Ackert of Athlon Sports recently linked the New York Yankees to Helsley in a potential blockbuster trade this season as the Bronx Bombers scramble for bullpen options.
