He was named after Larry Walker, grew up emulating Troy Tulowitzki and morphed into the best player to come out of Colorado’s most storied high school baseball program. The name to remember is Walker Martin. He’s got the tools and potential to be the state’s next great homegrown baseball star, and if the scouts are correct, Martin will be a major-league household name by the end of the decade. The country’s most prolific power hitter with 20 homers this year, Martin is likely to be picked high in July’s draft.
