Gotta think the Mets will be in there with Alvarez and if so, Walker gets cancelled out and then some.
But that's why I think the Cardinals can get this done. After Alvarez, Walker's the best pure hitting prospect in the game right now. And you have to figure the Nats are going to build their package around the best offensive piece they can get.
So that puts the Mets and Cardinals in the drivers seat. We can absolutely overwhelm the Mets package though. Baty and Gorman would wash but beyond that we can start pulling ahead.
Walker/Gorman answers the Mets Alvarez/Baty and we can start to pull away from there.
