Walker was on his way to being one of the top arms in the class before having Tommy John surgery, but is now fully healthy and already running his fastball back up to 92 mph. He pounds the zone with a full arsenal of pitches including one of the better changeups in the class.

Curveball shows 11/5-shape with tight spin, quality depth, deception and fastball arm speed at 76-79 mph, manipulates it well, throws for strikes, creates soft contact. Also flashes quality feel for changeup with fastball arm speed, deception, and fade action at 80-81 mph.
Medium 5-foot-11, 175-pound frame, athletic build. Right-handed hitter that hits from balanced, athletic setup, subtle leg lift load, short stride, and quality balance throughout the swing. Line-drive type approach with a simple, direct path keeping the barrel on plane through the hitting zone with bat speed that produced an exit velocity of 79 mph. Quality defender with average hands, fluid footwork, clean exchanges, and plays through balls well. Short arm action into high-3/4 release with accuracy on throws that produced a positional velocity of 81 mph. Also ran a 7.72 60-yard dash. Right-handed pitcher with long arm action intof high-3/4 release, solid balance, quick arm speed, and easy effort. Smooth rhythm, level shoulders, lands square and finishes athletically.
