Jordan Walker is a promising young outfielder for the St. Louis Cardinals, known for his impressive stature at 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds. Born on May 22, 2002, in Stone Mountain, Georgia, he was selected 21st overall in the first round of the 2020 MLB Draft. Walker made his MLB debut on March 30, 2023, at the age of 20. In his rookie season, he showcased his potential by batting .276 with 16 home runs and 51 RBIs over 117 games.
However, the 2025 season has presented challenges; as of May 17, he's batting .186 with 2 home runs and 14 RBIs, accompanied by a .502 OPS. Despite these struggles, Walker's raw talent and previous performance indicate a high ceiling, and the Cardinals remain hopeful that he will adjust and thrive as he gains more experience in the majors.
