Impact He slugged his first MLB homer in the seventh inning, a solo shot off Michael Tonkin that got the Cardinals on the board, before adding an RBI two-bagger in the ninth. Walker has come out of the gate firing, batting .333 (8-for-24) through his first six big-league games with a homer, a steal and five RBI, and the 20-year-old is positioning himself to be one of the early favorites in what could be a crowded race for the NL Rookie of the Year Award.

Swipes first big-league bag Walker went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact After a 1-for-5 showing in his big-league debut Thursday, Walker made a bigger impact the second time around, bringing home Nolan Arenado in the eighth inning with a single before swiping second base. Walker stole 22 bases on 27 attempts at Double-A in 2022, and the 20-year-old could make a big impact in that category this season even if the rest of his offensive game experiences some growing pains.

Notches hit, RBI in MLB debut Walker went 1-for-5 with an RBI in Thursday's loss to the Blue Jays.

Impact The 20-year-old kicked the door down in camp and it didn't take long for him to make his presence felt in the majors. Walker shot a single up the middle in the second inning, later drove in a run on a force out and also showed off his arm in the field with a throw clocked at 100.2 mph, according to MLB Pipeline. Walker was batting eighth against righty Alek Manoah, but it's possible he moves up in the order against left-handed pitching.

Hitting eighth on Opening Day Walker is starting in right field and batting eighth for the Cardinals on Thursday versus the Blue Jays.

Impact The wunderkind won a spot on the Opening Day roster with a huge spring but gets a difficult Opening Day matchup against Alek Manoah.

Officially added to roster The Cardinals selected Walker's contract and added him to the 40-man roster Wednesday.

Impact The transaction was merely a formality after Walker was informed days earlier that he would be included on the Opening Day roster, but St. Louis officially cleared a spot for him by designating reliever Anthony Misiewicz for assignment. Earlier Wednesday, manager Oliver Marmol told Katie Woo of The Athletic that Walker will be included in the lineup for Thursday's season opener versus the Blue Jays, and the 20-year-old and Lars Nootbaar should occupy the corner-outfield spots for St. Louis on a near-everyday basis, with the ballpark dimensions likely to determine who mans left or right. Walker earned his way on the Opening Day roster after posting a .791 OPS with three home runs and two steals in 20 Grapefruit League games.
