He's the highest Bear to be selected since Jeremy Eierman was taken by the Oakland Athletics in the second round with the 70th overall pick in 2018. Baldwin showed flashes during a pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign that lasted 17 games. He followed in his sophomore year by earning second-team All-Missouri Valley Conference honors while batting .291 and having a perfect fielding percentage in league play. The 6-foot-1, 225-pounder then followed it up with a junior season that caught the attention of scouts from across the country.

He ranks ninth in wRC+ (min. 100 plate appearances) and he’s one of just three players to walk more often than striking out while boasting a wRC+ north of 150 (José Fermín and Spencer Horwitz).

Baldwin was the lone Atlanta Braves representative at the 2024 All-Star Futures Game. Last year, the Braves sent RHP Spencer Schwellenbach who has been great as of late for the major league club. Baldwin was the DH for the NL squad and hit ninth in the lineup. In three plate appearances, he went 1-for-2 with two RBIs. The first RBI came from a sacrifice fly off of Astros RHP prospect A.J. Blaubaugh. The second RBI was a solo home run into left-center field that put the NL Futures team up 5-1. The ball left Baldwin’s bat at 107.3 MPH, making it the hardest-hit ball of the game. Yes, Baldwin’s opposite-field homer was the hardest-hit ball in a game that was filled with the world’s most talented baseball prospects.It also traveled 411 feet, making it the furthest-hit ball of the game.
