A filled-out righthander with a 6-foot, 190-pound frame, Walls has a low-effort operation and a starter profile thanks to his track record as a strike-thrower. Walls has a deliberate windup with a bit of coil and tilt in his leg lift before firing to the plate from a low three-quarters slot. He typically pitches in the 89-92 mph range, but touched 94 during the 2024 travel circuit, then reached back for 95 mph during the 2025 spring season. His fastball is a high-spin offering that he locates for strikes at a solid clip to set up a pair of reliable secondaries. His high-spin breaking ball has a slurvy look and blends between a curveball and a sweeping slider in the upper 70s and low 80s. It has typically been his best miss pitch, though he also throws his low-80s changeup more than the typical high school righthander. He seems to turn the change over consistently and is comfortable using it as his go-to secondary in right-on-left matchups. While Walls lacks high-end present velocity, he has the makings of a reliable three-pitch starter with a chance for above-average control. He’s committed to Texas and could be a tough sign, but fits on talent in rounds 3-7.

Walls is an athletic, 6-foot righthander who is able to generate low-90s velocity with a simple, low-effort operation. He has easy arm action and a high-spin fastball (2,400-2,600 rpm) that touches 94 mph, attacking hitters up in the zone to get whiffs. He shows feel for a slider as well that he can spin between 2,400-2,700 rpm and is the pitch that gets the most swing-and-miss. Walls has flashed some feel for a changeup as well that has solid sink at times.
