2025 Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Brooks was here until he wasn't. Baldwin did hit 15 homers with 22 steals over two levels of A ball in 2023, but struggled to hit for average in Kannapolis before finding something in Winston-Salem. That success carried over into 2024 when he hit .330 between Double-A and Triple-A with 8 homers and 17 steals in 82 games before being promoted to season-long open tryout in Chicago. The success did not follow him north as he was rather overmatched at the plate while also struggling with a wrist injury. Baldwin is projected to be the starting shortstop for the White Sox as things stand now, which means he should have the opportunity to show he can rake again until the club promotes Colson Montgomery to shortsop and pushes Baldwin to another spot. There are not a lot of players with upside on the Chicago roster, but Baldwin is one of those where a very late dart throw in AL-Only leagues could work out well. Read Past Outlooks
Could resume hitting this week
Baldwin (wrist) could resume on-field hitting this week but is unsure he'll make it back before the end of the season, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The right wrist sprain that sent Baldwin to the 10-day injured list earlier this month has improved, but he might run out of time before he's ready to return to the White Sox's active roster. The rookie infielder has slashed .211/.250/.316 in 33 games for Chicago this season.
