This Cardinal selected as 'most to prove' this spring

Post by ramfandan »

In article on MLB selecting one player from each team

Cardinals: OF Jordan Walker
The Cardinals have said Walker’s spring numbers don’t matter as much as simply seeing him take good at-bats. And he likely has a starting spot in St. Louis’ outfield no matter what. But after producing a 68 OPS+ and a 30.7% strikeout rate over his past two seasons (574 plate appearances), there is some pressure on the Cards’ former No. 1 prospect to implement his offseason work -- including changes to his swing and setup in the batter’s box -- and show that he can be the feared slugger that this lineup sorely lacks.

Link to artice should you wish to check out the player for the other 29 teams.
