Rushed ? His rookie year he did quite well. Hw hit .276 with 16 homeruns.
He did which is rare at 21 and then they sent him down to change his swing.

Basil Shabazz wrote: 21 Aug 2025 13:34 pm For those who may not be familiar, Richard Schenck is the personal hitting instructor for Aaron Judge. He’s widely credited with helping Judge refine his swing and approach—contributions that many believe played a key role in Judge's rise to elite superstardom.

Schenck trains hitters at his facility in St. Charles, and Judge regularly travels to the area specifically to work with him.

Now, I’ll preface this by saying I have no idea whether Jordan Walker has ever trained with Schenck or sought his advice. But if he hasn’t, it might be worth considering. Walker and Judge are similar in size, both bat right-handed, and both possess elite bat speed and exit velocity. It certainly wouldn’t hurt to see what Schenck might be able to do for him.
Is that the guy always posting on Twitter how the Cards arent helping Walker?
I am not sure
Yeah, it's him:

All he is really saying is what I have been saying for two years. He has to learn how to turn pelvic tilt into lateral tilt. If you look at the side-by-side video, Walker doesn't start with pelvic tilt. Look at Judge and you can see him tilted at the pelvis. You can't turn pelvic tilt into lateral tilt if you don't even start with a basic of hitting.

I can produce original thoughts. The same cannot be said for you.
