John Sickels is back from his trip to the Arizona Fall League and has some thoughts on the Walrus, amongst others.

Brett Wallace, 3B, St. Louis Cardinals: Huge butt. Like Bob Hamelin type butt. But his bat is absolutely for real. Massive power potential to all fields and he should hit for average as well. On defense, he has the arm for third base. He has more range than you might expect, and I think he can be a below-average but not horrible defender at third in the short run. The problem I see is what happens when he starts, inevitably, to lose his range. Even a minor diminution in mobility will make him untenable at third. But the bat, yeah, I love the bat.
