The Book on Neil Walker

Prospect Info

PITNeil Walker
Born 9/10/1985
3B, PIT

Once identified as the best catcher in the 2004 draft, Walker has had a bumpy road to pro ball. Now a full-time third baseman, he still shows the switch-hitting power stroke that brought him to the Pirate's attention years ago.

Older and wiser, he may see time on his hometown Pirates this year, and if so, don't be surprised if he puts up some impressive offensive numbers. He's been simmering in the background so long that he's bound to bust loose one of these days.
