The Diamondbacks are willing to discuss trades involving Walker leading up to the Aug. 2 deadline, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Walker rebounded from a down year in 2021 and is tied for ninth in MLB with 22 home runs -- he hit No. 22 on Friday. While his .206 batting average may not look appealing, the first baseman's expected average (.269 xBA) and on-base rate (.400 xwOBA, 17th in MLB) paint a different picture of his value. Teams more analytically inclined will see through the low batting average.
