Dru Baker has been drafted by the Tampa Bay Rays with the 130th pick in the fourth round of the 2021 MLB Draft.
The primary leadoff man for the Red Raiders led the team in batting average and doubles in 2021. Baker had an above average year in 2021, hitting .343 with four homers and 32 RBIs along with 14 doubles. While both Cal Conley and Jace Jung rightfully drew most of the national attention, Dru Baker had a big breakout season. Besides his consistent work at the plate, Baker was a menace in the outfield.
