Roster %
Eligibility
Nolan Gorman went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Cardinals' 10-6 win against the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Despite the home run contributing to the team's victory, Gorman's season continues to be a struggle with a mere .193 batting average and a high strikeout rate of .346. His power is evident with six homers to his name, but his overall inconsistency at the plate makes him a risky fantasy option. Owners should consider Gorman primarily in deeper leagues or formats that heavily reward power numbers, while being wary of the impact his batting average and strikeouts could have on their team's overall performance.
Nolan Gorman is missing from the lineup for the St. Louis Cardinals against the Los Angeles Angels Wednesday.

Nolan Gorman returns to the lineup for the St. Louis Cardinals against the Milwaukee Brewers Saturday.
Fantasy Impact

Nolan Gorman went 1-for-1 with a home run and an RBI in the Cardinals' 11-2 defeat to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
While Gorman's solo blast was a bright spot, his season-long struggles at the plate continue to be a concern for fantasy managers. With a batting average lingering around .180 and a high strikeout rate of .331, his power moments are overshadowed by frequent outs. His .266 wOBA indicates a below-average offensive contribution, making him a risky play in most fantasy formats. Unless he can find more consistency at the plate, Gorman's fantasy relevance will remain limited to deeper leagues where power is at a premium.
Nolan Gorman is not in the Cardinals lineup on Wednesday against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
