Baxter has a good tempo, and he throws strikes. He projects to throw with more velocity as he matures. Defensively he has good actions at first base, and he moves well around the bag. He made some nice plays in game action. At the plate he is a right handed hitter who hits from an upright stance. He shows raw power, and the ball jumps off his bat at time. He stays balanced and gets great leverage. Baxter is a good student as well.
