The Milwaukee Brewers continue their unending efforts to stock-pile young talent. Phil Miller of the Star Tribune tweeted earlier that the Brewers had claimed AAA outfielder Adam Brett Walker from the Twins.
Walker is an intriguing player with a profile familiar to the Brewers; extreme power and extreme risk.
In each the last four seasons, the outfielder has surpassed 500 plate appearances while working his way through the Twins minor league system. The fewest home runs he hit in any of those seasons was 25 in High-A in 2014.
He has undeniable power, both statistically and from a scouting perspective.
