White Sox's Darren Baker: Inks MiLB deal with White Sox
The White Sox signed Baker to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Baker -- who did not receive an invitation to major-league camp -- slashed .256/.343/.318 with one homer and 26 steals in 107 games with Triple-A Rochester in the Nationals organization in 2025. The 27-year-old got a cup of coffee with the Nats in 2024, going 7-for-14 at the plate. Baker will give the White Sox some experienced infield depth at Triple-A Charlotte.

Nationals' Darren Baker: Outrighted to Triple-A

Nationals' Darren Baker: Opening season in minors
The Nationals optioned Baker to Triple-A Rochester on Monday.
Baker received his first taste of the big leagues as a September call-up in 2024, seeing action with Washington in nine games while going 7-for-14 with two doubles and one run. The 26-year-old likely projects as a utility player at the big-league level, but he'll be given the chance to play on an everyday basis in Rochester to begin the upcoming season.

Nationals' Darren Baker: Receives call-up
The Nationals selected Baker's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.
The son of longtime manager and former MLB outfielder Dusty Baker, Darren will get his first taste of the big leagues at age 25. The left-handed Baker lacks power (no home runs in 483 plate appearances at Triple-A), but he makes good contact (18.8 percent strikeout rate, .285 average) and brings speed to the table (38 steals in 43 attempts). He'll serve in a utility role for the Nationals in September and saw action at second base, left field and center field for the Triple-A club this season.

Nationals' Darren Baker: Promotion forthcoming
The Nationals will select Baker's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.
MLB rosters will expand from 26 to 28 players Sunday, so the Nationals will take the opportunity to add depth to their bench by promoting Baker. The 25-year-old has spent the entire season at Triple-A slashing .285/.348/.340 with 49 RBI across 483 plate appearances. While he may not offer much in terms of production at the plate, his ability to play both second base and left field will give the Nats additional defensive flexibility for the final month of the season.

In Triple-A, he slashed .270/.336/.337 with three home runs across 448 plate appearances in 99 games. The second baseman notched four hits in 13 plate appearances during spring training.
