Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Wednesday that Gorman could "potentially" see some start at first base following the season-ending injury to Willson Contreras (shoulder), Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Alec Burleson will be the team's primary first baseman down the stretch, but Gorman might also see some action there on days when Burleson plays the outfield. Gorman's playing-time outlook took a hit with the returns of Brendan Donovan and Nolan Arenado from the injured list, but Gorman now has another avenue to playing time, albeit a narrow one.

Gorman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds, John Denton of MLB.com reports. Gorman had started in each of the Cardinals' last 29 games, but he could be headed for a steep reduction in playing time over the final two weeks of the regular season after St. Louis reinstated Nolan Arenado (shoulder) from the injured list Monday. With Arenado immediately slotting back into the lineup at his usual post at third base and with Willson Contreras (undisclosed) back in action Monday following a one-game hiatus, St. Louis now has its top options at the corner-infield spots available for the first time since late July.

Gorman went 3-for-3 with a solo home run in a 5-1 win against the Athletics on Wednesday. Gorman singled in his first two plate appearances before launching a 381-foot solo homer in the seventh inning. The infielder snapped an 11-game stretch without a multi-hit performance, and he had batted a paltry .135 (5-for-37) during that span. Gorman isn't lighting the world on fire with a .726 OPS on the campaign, but he has offered a bit of pop with 14 homers and 44 RBI across 338 plate appearances.

Gorman went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's loss to the Pirates. Gorman had one of just three hits for the Cardinals on the evening. Gorman's now driven in four runs over his last three games and has hit safely in five straight while reaching base safely 10 times over that span, registering a 4:4 BB:K.

Gorman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 8-3 victory over the Marlins. Gorman waited until the ninth inning to notch his first hit, but he made it count with a two-run blast off Josh Simpson that put the game out of reach. Filling in regularly at third base with Nolan Arenado (shoulder) sidelined, Gorman has held his own in August, slashing .250/.365/.477 with a double, three homers and nine RBI across 14 games.
