Spring training Walker looking exactly like 2025 Walker so far.
And 2025 Walker looked like 2024 Walker.

Gotta be frustrating for a guy who had prodigious amounts of pixie dust showered on him from the time he was in middle school get to the big show and find out he's not going to fulfill all those hopes and dreams. Wonder if he walks away early.

One of the insiders at spring training, Brian Walton, said on a podcast that Walker isn't giving off good vibes and that he doesn't seem to be having fun. He mentions it at 17:00 in this vdeo.
Overcoached and undercoached. They’ve tried a lot of things in a short period of time, none are working.

Don’t be surprised if he’s dealt soon.

I think I would just start Walker in AAA.

I'm fine with Libby, May, and McGreevy. Not a real 1-3 by any means, but that's how it's going to be this year and maybe next. I think either Pallante, Leahy or both also aren't in the rotation by June, and Fitts and/or Mathews will be up.

Thought they might do a six-man rotation but they probably want Fitts throwing more often and working on things.
