Jordan Walker is heating up in a major way, turning heads with his explosive performance this season. The 24-year-old Cardinals outfielder, who made the All-Star team and battled Kyle Schwarber in the Home Run Derby, delivered again Friday—going 3-for-5 with two runs scored, two RBIs, and another homer in Philly. His season stats are elite: .291 batting average, 27 homers, league-leading 96 RBIs, 17 steals, and a 4.1 WAR. After a slight dip post-All-Star break, he’s roared back in August, slashing .351 with 5 homers and 17 RBIs while posting his best OPS of the year. With the Cardinals climbing the standings and Walker on fire, St. Louis’ playoff hopes just got a lot brighter.
