Do you really think they would trade Walker

[redbirdfan51]

I am against trading Walker.
I refuse to believe he isn't as talented as I hoped.
Let him play.


Go Cards

I think Walker was rushed through the system and was a victim of some bad coaching. He is still just 22 years old. There is just too much potential to give up on him. Lately , I have noticed he has opened his stance some from when he started the season. He is pulling of the ball which can be fixed. On the very positive side, his defense is much improved.

IF the return is good, then I'd have no problem w/them dealing J. Walker as long as C. Bloom makes the trade and not Mo.

His upside (IMO) is J. Heyward w/o the GG defense in RF.

They traded Colby Rasmus. So you never know.

JD Drew too

I hope they do for the Cardinals and for him.

They have screwed him over again and again, messing with his swing.

Brant Brown's one week of results was a figment of the board imangination.

It's time for both to get a fresh perspective.

Not when he has zero trade value

+1 it would be dumb to trade him now. He may end up going the way of Dylan Carlson but it would be dumb to trade him now when he has vet little trade value

Reyes
Carlson
O’Neill
Walker
Gorman

All players who were “can’t miss”.

Also they all could (at one time) have brought a nice return.

The first 3 were allowed to stay here until and after their trade value became zero.

I’m starting to think the latter 2 will share the same fate.

They traded Colby Rasmus. So you never know.

He easily gets this season, he probably gets more than this season.
It does start to get a little tricky though after this season.

IMO, Walker needs to bring SLG. IF somewhere
along the assessment is that he is near league average at that or less
then I could agree with a trade sooner rather than later versus waiting
for it to happen. His SLG should be > .425.

I'm not giving up hope on him. Yadi hit .216 in his third year in the majors. After that in his career he had 6 seasons hitting .290 or better. Walker is 22 years old. He'll get smarter at the plate.

I’ve seen very few adjustment in breaking balls away that’s his krptonite and then they bust him in hard

I see no discernible learning taking place

[Basil Shabazz]

Yes.

No they didn't. He still hits worm burners and they wanted him to get some elevated line drives. He didn't listen...

Agreed. He has not taken to the instruction and guidance meant to enhance his hitting

[stlbirdlover]

The guy is hitting under .200 who the heck would want him!
