Nolan Gorman - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Goes deep again Monday Gorman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's loss against the Mets.

Impact Gorman stayed locked in at the plate, delivering another display of power by homering for the second time in as many days and recording an RBI in his fourth consecutive game. His 419-foot solo shot off Clay Holmes was pulled to right field and briefly cut into the deficit. The 25-year-old has failed to reach 20 home runs in each of the past two seasons after recording 27 in 2023, but his hot start suggests he could be trending back toward that mark this season.

Sitting against southpaw Gorman is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Rays.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Gorman was in the five spot in the lineup versus righties in each of the first two games of the season, but he'll sit out Sunday as the Cardinals go up against southpaw Steven Matz. Ramon Urias is at third base and batting sixth for St. Louis. Gorman has gone 2-for-8 with three RBI in the first two tilts of the season.

Heating up in Grapefruit League Gorman went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's Grapefruit League contest versus the Marlins.

Impact Gorman led off the top of the fourth inning with a blast off of Ryan Gusto. It's the third home run this spring for Gorman, who has reached base five times in his last two contests. Perhaps most encouragingly, he's also sporting a 4:5 BB:K. Gorman is set to be the Cardinals' primary third baseman this season and offers big power potential, albeit with lots of batting average risk.

Swats first spring training homer Gorman cranked a three-run home run in Wednesday's Grapefruit League tilt versus the Mets.

Impact Gorman took Jonah Tong deep to the opposite field in the third inning in what was his only hit in three trips to the dish. The 25-year-old got the start at third base in the contest and that's the position he's expected to man on Opening Day for a rebuilding Cardinals club.

Path remains at third base Cardinals president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom said Saturday of the signing of Ramon Urias that, "I don't think it will get in the way, substantively, for the opportunities...

Impact Gorman is in line to be the team's primary third baseman in 2026, and that won't change even after Urias was brought aboard. Urias does offer a right-handed-hitting alternative to the left-handed-swinging Gorman and is also a superior defender, so he'll get reps versus lefties and could handle third base some days while Gorman is used at designated hitter. Gorman is looking to bounce back from a two-year drought at the plate, having slashed just .204/.284/.385 with a 35.7 percent strikeout rate over that stretch.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Will get 'plenty of opportunity' Cardinals president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom said Tuesday that Gorman "should have plenty of opportunity this year," Brandon Kiley of 101 ESPN St. Louis reports.

Impact Bloom didn't explicitly say it, but the expectation is that Gorman will take over as the team's primary third baseman in 2026 for the departed Nolan Arenado. After a mini-breakout in 2023 that saw him crank 27 home runs, Gorman has slashed just .204/.284/.385 with a 35.7 percent strikeout rate over the last two seasons. He's still just 25, however, and the rebuilding Cardinals aren't ready to give up on his power potential.

Avoids arbitration with Cardinals The Cardinals and Gorman avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $2.655 million contract Thursday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact It was Gorman's first year of arbitration eligibility. The 25-year-old has regressed at the dish over the last two seasons, finishing 2025 with a .666 OPS, 14 home runs and a 33.8 percent strikeout rate. The left-handed-hitting Gorman could get another opportunity for regular at-bats versus right-handed pitching in 2026, though his playing time outlook would diminish if the Cardinals are unable to trade Nolan Arenado.

Impact Alec Burleson will be the team's primary first baseman down the stretch, but Gorman might also see some action there on days Burleson plays the outfield. Gorman's playing time outlook took a hit with the returns of Brendan Donovan and Nolan Arenado from the injured list, but he now has another avenue to playing time, albeit a narrow one.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting in Arenado's return Gorman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.

Impact Gorman had started in each of the Cardinals' last 29 games, but he could be headed for a steep reduction in playing time over the final two weeks of the regular season after St. Louis reinstated Nolan Arenado (shoulder) from the injured list Monday. With Arenado immediately slotting back into the lineup at his usual post at third base and with Willson Contreras (undisclosed) back in action Monday following a one-game hiatus, St. Louis now has its top options at the corner-infield spots available for the first time since late July.
