He shouldn't even be on the roster there is no upside. Another replacement level FA.

His 2022-2024 would have made him approximately the best White Sox player over that period

So if you're Cannon, you had the guy struck out but the call isn't made, then the guy squeaks one inside the foul line, guy barely safe at home (if at all), pop up gets dropped, crazy slide gets the guy an extra base..

How can anyone defend Baldwin he is not a F’N outfielder in any way, shape or form? Baldwin sucks in OF.

Yeah, that was a little weird.  None of it was really his fault, but I guess he was nearing 90 pitches?

Baldwin has made some of the highest difficulty plays among Sox outfielders this year in terms of catch probability — he's a good runner and gets some good jumps. But the finer points of outfielding have gotten him badly with balls near the fence and windy days. And his throwing arm is not good at all so he loses value there too. I think if he had time to learn the position he could end up being decent but he's not there now and his bat isn't picking him up. He hasn't fielded well in the infield either and there aren't many excuses for it.
