If you consider yourself a knowledgeable dynasty league player, then you should not be asking yourself “who is this Nolan Gorman dude of the St. Louis Cardinals?”

But if you are a newer dynasty baseball player, then you may be wondering about Gorman as he has slugged his way into the consciousness of many baseball fans.

A left-handed hitter, Gorman entered the Top 100 prospects lists of Baseball America, MLB Pipeline and Baseball Prospectus in 2019. By the start of the 2022 season, he was ranked 34th by BA, 33rd by MLB and 28th by BP

Gorman broke in with Cardinals in 2022, appearing in 89 games for the Redbirds and was a regular in the team’s lineup last season as he played in 119 games. The second baseman is now in his third season with the Cardinals, so why do I consider him an up-and-coming dynasty player?
