YES 🙌. Gorman really improved this year his defense still needs some improvement but offensively he is extremely strong and could be a huge player for us. Walker I believe is a generational talent!

Cannot wait to see him Over a Full Season. Do Not Extend him just Yet though 😌😒!

I agree but if he has a crazy season his upside is worth signing early. I don’t want the Cardinals to wait too long and when the time comes he won’t sign. I love Walker though!

He finished the season as the 35th worst hitter at striking out in all of MLB. He is a rally killer, not an rbi man. And he continued to play terrible defense right up to the end of the season. We can't afford having him on the field, if we want to win. Trade this guy, Mo. Our Cardinals will be much better with Nootbaar in RF.

Was that 35th place ranking based on total strike outs, or strike out percentage. I'm just wondering if he ranked that low because he had more at bats than most rookies, or if he was truely striking out more than most.

@@johnparrigon John, I'm not coming out with the same ranking that I did previously, but it's still bad. Baseball-reference uses 600 plate appearances to calculate league average, so I took that to be the minimum to get put on the official ranking. I prorated Walker's 104 K's in 420 at-bats (my error, I see I should have used 465 plate appearances, not at-bats) , and the resulting rate I got at the time projected up to 600 plate appearances put Walker right at 35th place with 149 K's as adjusted. What I saw listed back then by baseball-reference must have been missing a couple of players, because the result I now calculate doing it with 420 at-bats and 600 plate-appearances is 149, and I look at that site's list tonight, the 149 ranks him 37th, not 35th. But since I used the wrong denominator, Walker's plate appearances and strikeouts puts him at 134 for 600 plate appearances, and that's 63rd. So thanks for getting me to look a second time, and I'd say he's 63rd now instead of 35th, still pretty bad but not what I said earlier. MLB actually uses 502 plate appearances, not the 600 that baseball reference used to figure league average, so that's another variable. lol, doing quick calculations when everybody is putting up stats with different rules and incomplete list of players now makes me a bit smarter next time I look at something like this. However, I'm not changing my mind about Walker, that's too many strikeouts, and I think that teams will have a better book on him at the start of 2024 than they did in 2023. So he will probably do no better than he did in 2023. No, it wasn't because he had more at-bats than most rookies, I calculated his strike-out rate, did not just use his number of strikeouts, to put him 35th. And the list is all players, not just rookies. Sorry about me using the incorrect numerator though.

116 wRC+ as a 21-year-old rookie and a .903 OPS in high leverage situations, but sure, call him a rally killer I guess lol

@@peterron924 striking out at that rate kills more rallies than continuing them. Screw the analytics excuses. The game is over 100 years old. All that these "analytics" does is give people who lack real knowledge the idea that they know something, when it's actually a mirage. The inning was over, because Walker struck out, at a 25% rate. Combine that with his terrible defense where often our pitching staff needs to get 4 outs in an inning, it isn't hard to make a case that the 91 losses last year were because Walker was on the field in StL, instead of Memphis. I hope I'm wrong about him, but I'm not betting against me.

not sure if you’ve seen it but walker has changed his stance and approach for more contact in spring training. making good steps in adjusting to the mlb
