Contreras (shoulder) informed soon-to-be Cardinals president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom during a conversation Friday that he wishes to remain with the team rather than waive his no-trade clause in order to facilitate a deal, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

The Cardinals placed Contreras on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right shoulder strain.

Scouting Report

Is a good hitter with good pitch recognition who usually sports a solid walk/strikeout ratio. Also displays some home-run pop in his bat. Can both catch and play in the outfield. As a catcher, he still needs more work on the finer points of the position in order to be successful in MLB (and not force a permanent move to the outfield). Lacks some consistency.

Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile catcher with upside.
