Chuck Baker was drafted 4 times before he signed and had a career of 93 games. He was drafted in 1971 by the Twins in the 36th round, in '73 by the Royals in the 26th round, by the Astros' in the 2nd round in 1974 and in he was drafted by the Padres in 1975 in the 2nd round. He finally signed with the Padres in 1975. He made his major league debut in 1978 playing in 44 games. Then he played in 9 games in 1980 for San Diego before being traded to the Twins for Dave Edwards. He played in 40 games for the Twinkies in 1981. And that as they say is all she wrote. I got this card off of ebay.
