Paulino has him blocked and there is a huge opening currently at third base in Pittsburg. He is young enough to make the switch and appears to be willing. It is not the end of the world if he becomes a big leaguer at the hot corner. It was nice to see the Pirate owner, Bob Nutting post his comment but he wasn't around when Chad Hermanson was the Pirate's next sure thing, that failed.

Another poor move by the worst organization in pro sports (besides the Lions and Cardinals in the NFL). Yawn…reminds me of when they moved Chad Hermansen to the outfield.

He simply needs to be adequate. His bat is what's going to make him millions, if he gets to that point. He only needs to avoid being a man without a position, and even then there is the DH factor in the AL. Walker doesn’t need to be all that good over there at third base.

I hope he takes to it and can concentrate on breaking out with the bat in AA this season.
