Great article on Walker also has video of him he looks like he is copying Felix twist that he does that Vargas is also copying to add deception.
That 12-6 Curve or whatever it is looks sick to i mean it looks like it is going to hit the hitter in the head then it just falls back into the strike zone.

Yeah I noticed that too. Sometimes it scary for someone so young to throw mid-upper 90s, but he doesnt look like he is trying to hard. Just a natural athlete.

It's crazy listening to the national prospect experts talk about Walker. They usually can't contain their vocabularies.

Not sure if this has been posted yet or not. I like the side/back view at the beginning. Gives a better view of the movement and such.
BTW, curve looks like wiffle curve. Dirty

Anyone remember how Felix was at the age Walker is?
How do they compare?
