Nolan Gorman Changed Something in Memphis, and Almost Nobody Noticed

Nolan Gorman went to Memphis in June as a hitter with a scrambled swing and a 49 percent strikeout rate, and most Cardinals fans mentally closed the book on him. Over his last 14 games, something in the data quietly flipped, and Bernie Miklasz thinks St. Louis has roughly zero good reasons to ignore it. Bernie walks through what actually happened inside the Memphis hitting lab, why the early results looked worse than they were, and what the last two weeks of batted ball data suggest about whether the rebuild of Gorman's swing is taking hold. He also makes the uncomfortable comparison to the current Cardinals offense, which ranks at the bottom of the National League in home runs and slugging over its last 50 games. This is not a prediction that Gorman gets called up. It is an argument about what a rebuilding team has to lose by finding out.
