Manager Torey Lovullo said that the Diamondbacks' goal is to get Walker (ankle) ready for the start of the regular season, Jody Jackson of FOX Sports Arizona reports.
The young fireballer underwent ankle surgery back in October prior to being traded to Arizona, but it seems like Walker will be close to ready by the time Opening Day rolls around. A firmer timetable should become available as spring training progresses, but things seem to be looking up for the young hurler.
