Christian Walker waived to the D'Back

[Frobby]

Walker has 78 RBI in 74 games to lead the minor leagues -- God bless the PCL!    He made the PCL all star team.

Good to see Walker doing well - even though he's not even the best hitting 26 year old on his team.  Oswaldo Arcia's numbers are insane.

Best AAAA player since Dallas McPherson?

He's doing what he can, but neither he nor Goldschmidt can love that Arizona just used their first round pick on a college first baseman.  I guess they are already planning for life after Goldschmidt.

That Reno stadium must be a hitters paradise. The team is slashing .299/.361/.489/.850 and the pitchers have  4.73 ERA and 1.46 WHIP. Still, Walker is a good AAA guy who will get cups of coffee here an there. Maybe he can try and scratch out a Branden Snyder type career.

I like Walker and wish him well.    With Davis, Trumbo and Mancini all here, there was really no place for him.    I hope he makes it back to the majors and finds a role to fill.

So what does that say about Norfolk's 4.46 ERA and 1.46 WHIP in a pitcher's paradise?

Hard to argue.
