Nolan Gorman Dealing With Back Tightness
10 months agoSt. Louis Cardinals second baseman Nolan Gorman (back), who was scratched late from Sunday's lineup card versus the Chicago Cubs, continues to nurse lower-back tightness. The 23-year-old also experienced the discomfort at times earlier in July, so this seems to be something of a lingering issue. In any event, Gorman should be deemed day-to-day for now with the hope that he re-enters the fray in time for a three-game set with the Minnesota Twins commencing on Tuesday. The former first-rounder was slashing .341/.420/.773 with five home runs and 13 RBI across his most recent 44 at-bats. Taylor Motter took over to start at the keystone on Sunday and hit seventh.
