Cardinals Place Nolan Gorman On 10-Day Injured List
9 months agoThe St. Louis Cardinals have sent second baseman/designated hitter Nolan Gorman (back) to the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Aug. 14, with a lower-back strain. The 23-year-old has been out of the lineup since Monday and thought he could DH on Thursday, but Gorman's back pain has lingered since late July and the Cardinals will provide him some time to recuperate. Manager Oli Marmol has also revealed that Gorman will receive a pain-killing injection on Thursday that will sideline him for the next three days, so St. Louis made the choice to move him to the IL. The lefty-hitting slugger will carry a .241/.328/.487 triple-slash line with 24 home runs, 67 RBI, and six stolen bases over 406 plate appearances to the shelf.
