Cardinals Finalize Deal For Top Pick Jordan Walker

Share

St. Louis Cardinals top draft pick Jordan Walker is officially a member of the organization.  The club has agreed to terms with the third baseman out of Decatur High School in Georgia.  Walker is receiving a two-point-nine-million-dollar bonus.  St. Louis selected him with the 21st overall pick in the draft earlier this month.  The 18-year-old didn’t get to complete his senior season at Decatur because of the coronavirus pandemic, but in May he was named Georgia’s Gatorade Baseball Player of the Year after hitting .457 with four home runs in 16 games.
