Baldwin went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie backstop took Clay Holmes deep in the fourth inning to briefly tie the game at 1-1, before the floodgates opened for the Mets in the bottom of the frame. Baldwin has started two of every three games lately as he takes a firmer hold of the top job over Sean Murphy, and over his last six games he's batting .316 (6-for-19) with two of his nine homers on the season, plus five runs and seven RBI.

Baldwin went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin reached base three times, highlighted by a three-run homer in the ninth inning to help put the game out of reach. The rookie has cooled off a bit in June, going just 9-for-41 over 14 games, though he's still managed three home runs and nine RBI during that span. On the season, he's slashing an impressive .293/.350/.483 with eight homers, 24 RBI and 16 runs scored across 160 plate appearances.

Baldwin went 1-for-2 with two RBI and two walks in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Baldwin drew multiple walks for the first time this season in a much-needed productive outing at the plate. The lefty-hitting backstop had gone just 3-for-25 (.120) with a lone RBI over his prior nine games to Thursday, but he's been able to hold down a strong-side platoon role at catcher with the righty-hitting Sean Murphy. Baldwin is slashing .287/.342/.462 with seven homers, four doubles and 21 RBI across 155 plate appearances on the year, while Murphy has a woeful .557 OPS over his last 48 at-bats.
