I like Walker's power potential, but would it be tough to fit him into a major league lineup with all the other fixtures and highly touted prospects that fit the same mold- big power/high strikeout guys like Arcia, Vargas, Sano? How many of this type of hitter is ideal to have in the starting 9? I understand that none of the other 3 guys I mentioned are guaranteed to be long term fixtures, but for arguments' sake let's suppose they are.

Thanks for the update on the last 10 days. I was just thinking about posting something similar. I certainly am encouraged by the recent improvement at the plate, not to mention his walk rate continues to look good, but if his ML offensive production ends up like Butera's I will be disappointed. I'd much rather have a guy like Pinto (about average offensively and below average defensively) than have one of the worst offensive backstops but one of the better defensive ones. I'm not saying he can't get better offensively, but if he doesn't, I'd want someone else at the ML level. I'd be curious to know what others think.
