Open, upright stance with slow leg lift to stride. Baca gets to front side early, but still produces good rotation. Strong upper and lower half. Slightly upward path with pull side tendency. His hands work well with some “whippyness” and his peak exit velo was 93.6 mph. Lots of potential at the dish. Baca projects as a corner outfielder with a strong arm. He was up to 82 mph from the outfield.
