Gwen Baker brings size, experience, and rotation depth to DePaul’s pitching staff
Baker is a 6-foot-2 right-hander who has already logged meaningful Division I innings, going 10-5 with a 3.75 ERA over 25 appearances for Butler in the 2025 season before joining DePaul, where she made 19 pitching appearances as a sophomore. Her appeal is the combination of physicality, starter’s experience, and the ability to handle a heavy workload, which suggests she can stabilize a staff and fit as a dependable mid-rotation arm. The key question for a team is ceiling versus command consistency, but her track record shows a pitcher with real competitive value and upside.
