4th Round - Christian Walker: 1B, University of South Carolina

[theobird]

I am pumped about this guy. He is my favorite player out of this Orioles draft. I have seen him play 4 games in person, he is an excellent hitter, and under rated defensively. Just like when we drafted Reimold, he is my pick. I will be very surprised if we don't see him in Baltimore in a couple of years.

He appears to be too advanced for this league

[Gamecock1]

Went 2-3 tonight with a 2B and a walk, finally got his average over 300 after an incredibly slow start(like 1-13 or something)

[weams]

Good stuff. Thanks for pointing it out.

This league can not hold him.

This league can not hold him.

Walker to Delmarva, Delmonico to Frederick, Townsend to Bowie? Or is that rushing Delmonico? I'd like to see what Walker can do at a higher level; I don't think there's much surprise he's hitting NY-Penn league pitching.

[Gamecock1]

2-4 with an RBI today, hitting .328 now and slugging .500
