He previously played for the Seattle Mariners, Arizona Diamondbacks, and Toronto Blue Jays. Amateur career Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, Walker's original love was basketball, until he began playing baseball at the age of 11. Walker attended Yucaipa High School in Yucaipa, California, where he was a pitcher and shortstop, as well as a two-sport athlete. At Yucaipa, Walker was teammates with Matt Davidson, a third baseman in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization. Yucaipa is also the alma mater of former major leaguers Corky Miller and Mark Teahen.[1] Professional career Seattle Mariners The Seattle Mariners selected Walker in the first round, with the 43rd overall pick, of the 2010 MLB draft.[2] Walker and the Mariners agreed to a deal that included an $800,000 signing bonus.[3] He made four appearances for the Rookie League AZL Mariners, all in relief, and went 1–1 with a 1.29 earned run average (ERA). Walker was listed as one of the Mariners' top 10 prospects for the 2011 season, ranked fourth according to Baseball America.[4] Prior to the 2012 season, he was ranked the second best prospect in the Mariners organization and the 20th best overall.[5][6] Walker was selected to play in the 2012 All-Star Futures Game.[7] After Walker pitched to a 5–3 win–loss record and a 3.61 ERA with 64 strikeouts in 57+1⁄3 innings pitched for the Tacoma Rainiers of the Triple-A Pacific Coast League, the Mariners promoted Walker on August 30, 2013.[8] Walker pitched 5 innings against the Houston Astros, and yielded just 2 hits and struck out 2. Walker was called up when rosters expanded in September 2013. He started 3 games, finishing the season with a 3.60 ERA in 15 innings. On September 24, 2014, Walker pitched his first MLB complete game, allowing one run in a 1–0 loss against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. Walker with the Mariners in 2015 Walker began the 2015 season as a member of the Mariners' starting rotation. In his first start, at Oakland, Walker gave up nine runs in 3+1⁄3 innings. He followed that outing by giving up 5 runs in 4 innings against the Dodgers, causing some to question whether or not Walker was ready for the big leagues. Walker continued to struggle, pitching more than 6 innings only once through his first nine starts. However, Walker won five straight starts in June and July, improving his record from 2-6 to 7-6. Walker struggled after winning five straight, going 0-1 with an 8.02 ERA, but on July 31, he threw a complete game one-hitter (his only hit was a home run by Miguel Sano) against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. This time, his offense backed him up, as he won 6-1, striking out 11 only needing 100 pitches to do so. Overall, Walker finished the 2015 season with an 11-8 record despite posting a 4.56 ERA in 29 starts. Throughout the first half of the 2016 season, Walker battled with a foot injury. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list on two occasions. He began the second half of the season on the disabled list. Before the all-star break, Walker had a 4-7 record despite a 3.66 ERA and 80 strikeouts in 86 innings. Walker was optioned to AAA on August 8, 2016. On September 13, 2016, Walker pitched his first career complete-game shutout in an 8-0 Mariners win over the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. He carried a perfect game into the sixth inning and a no-hitter into the seventh, finishing the game allowing no walks and three hits while striking out eleven batters.[9] Arizona Diamondbacks On November 23, 2016, the Mariners traded Walker and Ketel Marte to the Arizona Diamondbacks for Jean Segura, Mitch Haniger, and Zac Curtis.[10] In 2017, his first season in Arizona, Walker made 28 starts, pitching to a 9-9 record in 157 innings. On April 15, 2018, Walker was placed on the 10-day disabled list due to right forearm tightness.[11] Two days later, on April 17, it was revealed that Walker was diagnosed with a UCL injury in his right elbow.[12] On April 18, it was revealed that Walker had a partial tear of the UCL in his right elbow. The injury required Tommy John surgery, bringing Walker's 2018 season to a premature end.[13] Following his Tommy John surgery, he appeared in one game for the Diamondbacks, the final game of the 2019 season. On December 2, 2019, Walker was non-tendered by Arizona and became a free agent.[14] On February 4, 2020, Walker worked out for 20 scouts from Major League teams.[15] Second Stint with the Seattle Mariners On February 12, 2020, Walker signed a one-year contract for $2 million to return to the Seattle Mariners.[16] Toronto Blue Jays On August 27, 2020, the Mariners traded Walker to the Toronto Blue Jays for a player to be named later or cash considerations.[17] On September 1, 2020, Toronto sent Alberto Rodríguez to Seattle to complete the trade. On August 29, 2020, he made his Blue Jays debut against the Baltimore Orioles, he threw six scoreless innings, allowing four hits.[18] With the 2020 Toronto Blue Jays, Walker appeared in 6 games, compiling a 2-1 record with 1.37 ERA and 25 strikeouts in 26+1⁄3 innings pitched. New York Mets On February 20, 2021, Walker agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract with the New York Mets with a player option for the 2023 season.[19] He was named to the 2021 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, his first career nomination, replacing teammate Jacob deGrom who announced he would not participate.[20] After hurting himself swinging right-handed, Walker began batting left-handed. When he bunts, however, he still does so right-handed.[21] Walker finished the 2021 season with a 7–11 record and a 4.47 ERA in 159 innings. Scouting report He throws a mid-90s four-seam fastball, a curveball, and a changeup.[22][23] He has also begun to develop a sinker and cut fastball.[24][25] Personal life Raised by his single mother, Walker helped care for his younger siblings.[1] Walker and his wife, Heather Restrepo, welcomed their first child, son Zayden, in July 2017. They then welcomed a second son in early November 2020.[26] Item Condition/Details - Please Read PLEASE NOTE: Any notable flaws or damage putting them outside the condition stated in this listing will be noted.
