I want to preface this recap of Taijuan Walker’s 2024 season by saying it’s often important to separate the person from the ballplayer. Taijuan Walker the person seems to be a pretty decent guy. He’s supportive of his teammates and doesn’t want to struggle just as much as we don’t want to see him struggle. However... Taijuan Walker the ball player was nothing short of horrific this year.
TGP’s Jared posted a good piece in September about Walker’s struggles that’s really worth reading. Rather than summarize what he said, I encourage you to give it a read.
