It’s nice to know in the talent evaluation of the Cardinals they have players who can reach higher than that. I don’t know.”](https://www.rawchili.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/S9DZ_h28am26vl4b0hpBcqGSv-QGpS4I5txmWJ4kDiY.jpg)

Here is a link to [Jordan Walker’s splits this season](https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.fcgi?id=walkejo02&year=2023&t=b), if anyone is interested!
You can also find his stats through any span of games on his Game Log page.
this guy sucks id rather have elly
Walker has been amazing at making the exact adjustment he needed to, namely getting the ball in the air to the pull side.
April: 60.4% GB%, 37.7% pull%
June: 57.1% GB%, 42.9% pull%
July: 42.6% GB%, 41.2% pull%
August-September: 40.9% GB%, 38.7% pull%
Now, he’s never going to be as good as Nolan Arenado or Isaac Parades at pulling fly balls, but he has a much healthier batted ball profile than he did in April. That demotion did him a lot of good.
