I love the move to bring up Christian Walker to play in these last eleven (now ten) games. This was not an easy move as we had to put him on the 40 man roster, and we know how much Duquette values each spot on the 40 man for roster flexibility. However, with Davis's suspension, Walker has the opportunity to get valuable experience while allowing Buck to rest some of our key guys.

 

Walker has put up solid minor league stats. While his tools don't jump off the chart, he has a great baseball IQ and is going to benefit tremendously playing everyday at first base these last two weeks, while being in the clubhouse with a division championship team. Not to mention he will get to learn from fellow South Carolina-alum Steve Pearce. Pearce is another guy who was overlooked for not having all the tools, but ended up becoming our best player this season (according to WAR). I am excited to see Walker play.
