2025 Fantasy Outlook
There were myriad reasons why the Cardinals' offense flopped in 2024, but Walker taking a giant step back rather than a step forward was chief among them. The former top prospect was optioned to Triple-A Memphis following a slow start for the second year in a row and his first home run of the season at any level didn't come until June. Walker did hit a team-leading five homers and tied for the club lead with 16 RBI in September, although he also had just a 24:3 K:BB that month. The youngster's 43.1 percent hard-hit rate and 9.5 percent barrel rate were improvements upon his rookie season, but Walker regressed substantially with his strikeout rate (28 percent) and walk rate (5.6 percent). The Cardinals have pledged to play their young guys in 2025, which means Walker, who turns just 23 in May, should get plenty of leash. The pedigree says it should click for him eventually, but it's hard to have a ton of confidence that it will happen in 2025. Read Past Outlooks

Getting night off
Walker is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates.
ANALYSIS
Walker will take a seat for the second time in three games, as he had previously sat out the first game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Mets. Dating back to April 15, Walker is slashing just .118/.167/.137 with a 31.5 percent strikeout rate, and his ongoing struggles appear to be costing him some playing time.

Stat Review
How does Jordan Walker compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2023
2022
Walker was at the front of the line of the 2023 Shiny New Toy group with a monster spring training that had rapidly pushed him up March draft lists as fantasy managers were hoping for the next Julio Rodriguez. By season's end, the likes of Luke Raley, Ryan O'Hearn, and Brandon Marsh outearned Walker in overall fantasy value. Walker finished the season as an above average run producer (116 wRC+) but did not excel in any one category for the disappointing Cardinals team. Walker did get off to a strong start, but still went back to the minors at the end of April and also hit .209/.258/.352 in July which cut into his overall production. Normally this kind of season would push a player's draft value down to a more reasonable level, but Walker's upside is simply going to be too tempting for fantasy managers to resist. If he can pull the ball a little more, 30 homers should happen and it could also elevate him from the bottom half of the lineup.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Demoted for playing time
Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak said Tuesday that Walker was demoted to Triple-A Memphis in order to get him consistent playing time, reports Katie Woo of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The 22-year-old was called up by St. Louis on Aug. 12 but went 1-for-11 in just four games before being sent back down Tuesday. Walker posted a .276/.342/.445 slash line with 16 homers in 117 games as a rookie last season, but he's been unable to get consistent run in the majors in 2024. His .756 OPS at Triple-A Memphis this season is underwhelming, but he could still receive another look in the big leagues down the stretch if the Cardinals fall out of playoff contention.
