vs. LHP: Immediate everyday starter in RF. Báez slugged .540+ against southpaws in Triple-A Memphis with 43% pull-side fly ball velocity.

vs. RHP: High-upside power bat paired with strikeout management. Defensive run prevention cushions his offensive development floor.
Historical Rookie Benchmark
Cardinals top-3 OF debut comparisons: Oscar Taveras (2014), Dylan Carlson (2020), Jordan Walker (2023). Báez carries the highest raw power & arm grade combo in that tier.
