Jordan Walker's aglow, Jesús Luzardo's a buy low and other fantasy baseball takeaways
Jordan Walker has lived three or four different lives as a major league player, yet somehow he’s still only 23 years old.Walker has already been a can’t-miss phenom, a post-hype breakout, a confirmed bust and a cautionary tale. Right now, somewhat unexpectedly, he’s one of the most dangerous hitters in the game. After a two-homer weekend, he finds himself in sole possession of the MLB lead — and plenty of his long balls have been wrecked.

His average exit velocity (97.9), hard-hit rate (70.6) and bat speed (78.5) are as good as it gets. It’s taken him just 15 games to exceed last season’s home run total.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
