The Diamondbacks will trade Goldschmidt to the Cardinals on Wednesday, Jon Heyman of FancredSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Talks between the two clubs quickly escalated Wednesday afternoon, and it appears a deal has been struck to send the perennial All-Star to St. Louis. At this time, there has been no word on the return for the Diamondbacks, but it's expected that the rest of the deal will come to light within the next few hours. Goldschmidt will immediately provide a strong middle-of-the-order bat to the Cardinals after slashing .290/.389/.533 with 33 home runs and 83 RBI last season, which is all the more impressive considering he was barely above the Mendoza line at the end of May.
