Nolan Gorman
I hope Bloom doesn't trade Gorman in the off season but trades Arenado so he can play third everyday. I guarantee if you trade him he will hit thirty homers for another team. The kid come through last night with a key hit for the lead.

Re: Nolan Gorman
Look at two trades that the Cardinals regret Garcia and Arozarena.
Re: Nolan Gorman
Very true, especially his inaccurate arm. He is bound for 1B/DH. Since the Cardinals already have Contreras and Burleson at these positions, someone will need to be traded. Willson would be very hard to trade, so it seems either Burly or Gorman gotta go..........OldRed wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:48 amHe's not a good 3rd baseman defensively.southernblues wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:43 am I hope Bloom doesn't trade Gorman in the off season but trades Arenado so he can play third everyday.

Re: Nolan Gorman
Not very similar examples - the Cardinals did not give either of them enough playing time at St. Louis for them to prove their worth. Gorman has been given nearly 400 games in 4 years to show his talents.southernblues wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:50 am Look at two trades that the Cardinals regret Garcia and Arozarena.
Re: Nolan Gorman
No doubt he's rusty at best. But give him the rest of the year there. EVERYDAY OLI. Than see where he's at. Adjust accordingly.OldRed wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:48 amHe's not a good 3rd baseman defensively.southernblues wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:43 am I hope Bloom doesn't trade Gorman in the off season but trades Arenado so he can play third everyday.

It's crazy guy's who have watched enough ball still judge a guy by what he's done for a week after not playing that position since 2019.ecleme22 wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 07:07 amSmall sample sizeOldRed wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:48 amHe's not a good 3rd baseman defensively.southernblues wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:43 am I hope Bloom doesn't trade Gorman in the off season but trades Arenado so he can play third everyday.

Re: Nolan Gorman
Yeah he just had the assignment dropped in his lap 10 days ago... he certainly hasn't looked great but it would be silly to make that permanent decision now. Give him the rest of the year there, the offseason to work out there, and then until probably Mother's Day next year (assuming he's not traded).2ninr wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 07:06 amNo doubt he's rusty at best.

Re: Nolan Gorman
190 games in the minors = 47 errors.
Re: Nolan Gorman
Considering the cardinals probably have no plans to be competitive next season, the Cardinals might as well try to get a full season out of them. Gorman is heading into his prime years. Walker will be just beginning his prime years next season. Gorman is a better hitter than he was in 2024. Walker is having a good second half. I’d give them both another season. Trading either, potentially too early, most likely outweighs any return the cardinals are going to get back. I’d be more inclined to trade Donovan if they’re not going to extend him, along with Nootbaar.
It sure would be nice to be able to tell a guy in October what the plan is for him the following season, so he can actually create and execute an offseason plan.

Easy two hopper last night- threw it up the line. Error. Can’t field. The dude cannot be in the field- DH period.12xu wrote: ↑11 Aug 2025 06:53 amVery true, especially his inaccurate arm.
