Jordan Walker just launched a 459-foot grand slam and the scary part is, that might not even be the most impressive thing he's doing right now. His plate discipline has completely changed, and Joe Roderick and Mike Claiborne explain why this version of Walker should have the rest of the National League paying attention. On this episode of Mondays With Mike, Joe and Mike dive deep into what's different about Jordan Walker in 2026. It's not just the power, it's what he's NOT swinging at.
