Will they both be back in 2026?

Walker to minors. Gorman traded.

Don’t think so

Walker is broken. If retained in minors should have to make significant progress to be brought up. He’s done that before and still failed in majors. I hope he is traded or just released.

Gorman basically same as Walker. Might have more trade potential?????

Does Gorman have an option left? If it's no and he has to be kept on the MLB roster or else it will depend on Nado being gone as to whether he would have a spot next year. If not it's hard to see any PT for him unless of course the light suddenly comes on and stays on.

This

Walker just turned 23. Perhaps the Cards moved him through the system too quickly. I doubt he would get much in return. However, it's worth exploring. If he does stay with the club, his performance in Spring Training will be pivotal with his future , particularly a a Cardinal. he does have one option left so may be the Cards send him to Memphis. Unless he has a really bad Spring,JJ will start at either 3B or 2B depending on who or if Nado and/or Donovan is moved. Not sure if Gorman will be back, but it will be at 3B. Maybe even a platoon with Saggese.

Yes. They will still be in the organization. Starting in the minors

Tonight I will provide the plan STL must follow in 2026 in order to fix the organization.
I will give the correct answer concerning Gorman, Walker, and many others.

Easy call.

AAA for Walker.

Gorman too if NADO's still here.

If NADO's traded (likely), then they may have to keep Norman up especially if Donovan is traded too.

Ideally I'd start both at Memphis and keep Walker (for sure) there all season.

Agree
Walker also being a RH bat gives him an edge over Gorman.

I don’t know about the rest of CT but I’m giddy with excitement in anticipation of his post!
I don’t live in the St. Louis area but if I did I would organize a group meeting to celebrate his post.
