It could just as easily being them deciding that they want to see if they can convince Goldschmidt to stay after he's seen the team for a while (the Matt Holliday move, basically), while holding out for Arenado. Given that Carpenter's option next year is a team option, you could decline his while signing Arenado, and after Waino's incentive-laden contract comes off the books, you'd be damn near revenue neutral.
