Jake Walsh Salary: How Much Does Jake Walsh Make?

Walsh had the lowest ERA and the best WHIP (a surrogate for the rate of fewest baserunners).



Walsh’s strikeout to walk ratio of 4.8 to 1 topped the competition save one, thanks to the fourth-highest strikeout rate among finalists (12.2 per nine innings).

Prater has the highest strikeout percentage (15.0 per nine innings) and allows the fewest hits per nine innings (at 3.1).



However, his high walk rate of roughly one per inning resulted in an average WHIP and a strikeout-to-walk ratio near the bottom of our finalist list.

Only one candidate, Nick Trogrlic-Iverson, walked fewer than 2.4 batters per nine innings.

Trogrlic-Iverson, a 2020 undrafted free agent, has already been promoted from Palm Beach to Peoria. Michael Brettell, a finalist, was promoted to Springfield in May.

Starter Jack Ralston, as well as relievers Ramon Santos and Fabian Blanco, join Prater and Walsh as additional contenders who have a strikeout rate of above one per inning.

Walsh was named May Pitcher of the Month by The Cardinal Nation for his consistency.

He has run off a stretch of seven consecutive scoreless outings after conceding a run in his first appearance of the season (and first at the Double-A level).

Walsh took the loss in that game after allowing a double, two free passes, and a run-scoring wild pitch.

Walsh has been a reliable finisher for Springfield manager Jose Leon, pitching in eight of his nine appearances as the team’s final pitcher. He’s pitched anything from 1/3 of an inning to 3 2/3 innings.
