For the season, the 24-year-old Baldwin is hitting just .222/.264/.364 over 178 plate appearances, but he may continue seeing plenty of starts over the final two months of the campaign while the non-contending White Sox prioritize playing time for their younger players down the stretch.

EDGE Analysis

Baldwin will occupy center field for the fifth straight game and the sixth time in seven contests following his promotion from Triple-A Charlotte on July 1. Though Luis Robert (hamstring) will eventually reclaim everyday duties in center when he returns from the injured list, Baldwin's ability to play either corner-outfield spot as well as the three infield positions could allow him to retain steady playing time if he warrants it. Since his call-up, Baldwin has gone 6-for-17 with one home run, two doubles, two walks, three runs, three RBI and one stolen base.

For the season, Baldwin is batting .216 with a .605 OPS, four homers, 18 RBI, 10 runs scored and two stolen bases over 152 plate appearances.
