Nolan Gorman Injury: Set to return Friday

Gorman (back) is expected to be activated off the 10-day injured list Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

The 25-year-old went 3-for-13 with a double and a homer during his three-game rehab assignment, clearing the way for him to rejoin the Cardinals after recovering from lower-back pain. Gorman could be a regular presence in the lineup since the corresponding transaction will be Nolan Arenado (shoulder) heading to the IL.
