Report: Cardinals interested in signing Ben Zobrist to multi-year deal

Ben Zobrist is attracting all kinds of attention as a free agent, including from some of the high-profile markets in the majors.

The St. Louis Cardinals are among the teams interested in signing the versatile player to a multi-year contract, reports ESPN's Buster Olney.

Zobrist is reportedly already being courted by the Chicago Cubs, Atlanta Braves, Washington Nationals, and Kansas City Royals, among others.

The 34-year-old is fresh off a World Series championship with the Royals, and even named his daughter after the club, which could indicate his strong interest in returning.

Zobrist, who can play nearly every position on the diamond, boosted his value on the market with an outstanding playoffs at the plate, hitting .303/.365/.515 with two homers and six RBIs in 16 postseason contests.
