Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Working on rediscovering swing
Walker has been working with new Cardinals hitting coach Brant Brown this offseason on rediscovering the swing he had prior to the 2024 season, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Upon reviewing video from 2024 as it compared to 2023, Walker and Brown noticed that the outfielder's hands were separating from his body too soon and also the balance in his lower half was inconsistent while he used a wider stance. The goal, per Walker, is to "hit line drives" and "drive the ball in the gap" instead of putting so much emphasis on lofting the ball in the air. Walker said he's "super-excited" with the early results of his swing changes and can't wait to test it out against live pitching. The Cardinals are committed to youth in 2025, which includes giving Walker a long leash in right field. The 22-year-old Walker slashed only .201/.253/.366 over 52 games with St. Louis in 2024 while spending a large chunk of the season in the minors.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Goes deep Saturday
Walker went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk against the Guardians in Saturday's 6-5 victory.
Walker opened the scoring in the contest with a two-run shot to left field in the fourth inning. The young outfielder has been productive of late, batting .269 (7-for-26) with three home runs and eight RBI over his past eight contests. Walker looks to be finishing 2024 on a strong note following a disappointing start to the season that resulted in him spending most of the campaign in the minors.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Homers in Tuesday's win
Walker went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Pirates.
Walker has hit safely in four straight games, a span that includes two of his four homers this season. The outfielder has gone just 7-for-39 (.179) since opening September with a five-hit game. For the year, he's batting .190 with a .609 OPS, 13 RBI, 12 runs scored and one stolen base over 40 contests, though he's received ample playing time down the stretch since the Cardinals faded from the playoff race.

The 22-year-old got the Cardinals on the board in the third inning by launching a hanging slurve from Jose Berrios over the fence in left-center field. Walker has hit all three of his homers in the majors this season in September, but since a 5-for-5 performance Sept. 1 against the Yankees, he's gone just 4-for-30 (.133) with a 1:12 BB:K.
