Gorman penciled in at 1B tonight
I know WC is serving his suspension, but could this be his future position with Wetherholt knocking at the door at 3B next season?

possibly you're reading way too much into this?redbirdfan51 wrote: ↑05 Sep 2025 14:47 pm I know WC is serving his suspension, but could this be his future position with Wetherholt knocking at the door at 3B next season?
Not only is Willy serving the suspension, you have Burley on the IL. 3rd option playing 1B out of necessity. Not some cryptic move by the Organization
Re: Gorman penciled in at 1B tonight
It could happen, indeed. Herrera and Winn should probably be switched in tonite's lineup.redbirdfan51 wrote: ↑05 Sep 2025 14:47 pm I know WC is serving his suspension, but could this be his future position with Wetherholt knocking at the door at 3B next season?

Wetherholt will play 2nd base

if Burly were not on IL, he certainly would be at 1b tonight (where he is pretty good IMO)

Sure hope so. Love watching last place baseball. Dude sucks, and always will.redbirdfan51 wrote: ↑05 Sep 2025 14:47 pm I know WC is serving his suspension, but could this be his future position with Wetherholt knocking at the door at 3B next season?

Re: Gorman penciled in at 1B tonight
Whether it’s his future position or not I don’t know but as far back as the series in San Diego Gorman was getting work in at first base during pregame- they certainly didn’t know at that time that both Burly and WC would be out of the lineup on 9/5 - some sort of intent behind his pregame work.

JJW is going to be at 2nd base on OD in 2026, not 3rd base.
But yes, once WillyC is gone either via trade or contract expiration, we could see Norman at 1st base if he's still here and has become a more consistent offensive weapon.

Re: Gorman penciled in at 1B tonight
Are they trying to boost Gorman's trade value?

Could you make a list of players you like. Thanks.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑06 Sep 2025 08:52 amWinn should be worried...JJ should be the SS, and Winn traded.

Winn now has the 4th best WAR On the team. He's a one tool player. Cards should desire players who are more balanced across multiple tools.
