    Baylor is an athletic prep shortstop who is committed to Louisburg (N.C.) JC. The 5-foot-11, 193-pound infielder has a feel to put the barrel on the ball and makes consistent contact and last summer showed some solid raw power to the pull side as well. He doesn’t strikeout much and has a feel to steal some bases, grading out as a plus runner. While Baylor has speed and 55-grade arm strength, most scouts believe he will have to move off of shortstop at the next level, where he could be a fit at second, third or a corner outfield spot.
