Timmy U Posted July 29, 2024 Share Posted July 29, 2024 Walker has a huge groundball rate. Spray chart indicates a lot of hard grounders right at 3b. Sox are not the team to fix him. That said, there's no one else from the Cards I really want. Trade him to the Mets for Ryan Clifford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
