Nolan Gorman powers Cardinals past Red Sox
by Chris Schommer | Cardinals Correspondent | Sun, May 19th 7:28am EDT
Nolan Gorman went 2-for-4 in the Cardinals' 7-2 victory over the Red Sox, including a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance, featuring his seventh homer of the season, offers a glimpse of hope for fantasy managers enduring his sluggish .201 batting average. Despite the low average and high strikeout rate (0.350), Gorman's power potential remains evident. His ability to drive in runs (18 RBI in 40 games) and occasional bursts of slugging (now with seven homers) should keep him relevant in fantasy formats that reward power. However, his high strikeout frequency and low on-base skills (.299 wOBA) suggest a cautious approach, especially in points leagues where strikeouts are penalized.
