Yeah him and his .215 avg. I so miss him swinging and missing pitches low and away out of the strike zone! :(
It's frustrating to see Walker not improve about the chasing, but it's tough to be too indignant about his batting average when Noot is hitting .227, Gorman .219, and Pages .208. Walker has fewer at bats than all of those guys. Our problem is broader than Walker.
That's the facts jack

If Walker plays right and Burleson moves to left and Nootbaar sits, or if Walker plays, Burleson is the DH, and Gorman sits- is the drop off significant?

Anything that takes Herrera out of the lineup is a negative. After that it doesn't matter too much

He won't be starting every game. Hopefully not anyways.

Nope. If there’s any player they need to give “runway” to see if he can figure it out it’s Walker.
