Baldwin is slashing .297/.412/.479 with 11 home runs and more walks (47) than strikeouts (45) in 62 games for Triple-A Gwinnett.
ANALYSISBaldwin's 31.2 percent hard-hit rate, 80 percent contact rate and 15.6 percent strikeout rate are all high-end marks for an upper-level catching prospect. Atlanta has an $8 million club option on
Travis d'Arnaud for 2025, while
Sean Murphy is locked up long term, so it's unclear how large Baldwin's role will be in 2025.
