Fansided: Luken Baker will be fun to watch this spring

by Miranda Remaklus

At 23, Luken Baker is a big kid with a big bat. He will be a fun guy to watch this spring as he continues to develop in the St. Louis Cardinals system.

As a right-handed first baseman, Luken Baker has nothing but time to develop and get better in the minor leagues. However, Baker was a non-roster invitee to Spring Training this year for the St. Louis Cardinals. So while he is with the club, he should be entertaining to watch.

Baker was first drafted out of Oak Ridge High School in Conroe, Texas, by the Houston Astros in the 37th round of the MLB Amateur Draft in 2015. Instead of going to the majors, he went to Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas.

Hard to believe he's still only 23.

He was rumored to be initially involved in the Arenado deal but the Cardinals were able to keep him. Can you imagine Baker hitting in Coors field?
