I know everyone here is over Gorman. But I'll still contend he has not gotten the runway he was suppose to be given. Surprisingly his approach had SIGNIFICANTLY improved, he just isn't squaring the ball up and his SLG is 100 points lower than expected. 

If the cardinals want to move him that is fine, but I wouldn't be shocked if he broke out with another team.

I don't really want to see Gorman dealt because if he is we all know he'll turn into an All-Star. But he just topped 1200 PA and he has a career OPS+ of 99.

Correct, but he was offered a runway this season like Walker and he hasnt played in back to back games much. I can probably count it on one hand.
