Nolan Arenado and Starling Marte are in similar situations during spring training. However, the Mets outfielder has chosen a different approach than the Cardinals star regarding trade rumors.

Despite an uncertain future, Starling Marte said that he's doing his best to remain a positive influence in the Mets clubhouse.

The New York Mets made their intentions clear with their incumbent right-fielder during and after their pursuit of Juan Soto this off-season. While speaking to media on Sunday, Starling Marte said that the Mets told him they would try to trade him at multiple points throughout the winter.
