Oak Ridge (Texas) High righthander/first baseman Luken Baker sent an email to all major league teams this week, telling them he intends to uphold his commitment to play at Texas Christian. Baker ranks No. 58 on the Top 200 Draft Prospects list and is considered one of the top two-way talents in the class.Baker’s letter, obtained by Baseball America, thanks scouts for taking the time to evaluate him. But he wrote that after consultation with his family, he believes it is in his best interest to go to TCU, where he will be able to continue to play two positions, as well as continue his education.

Another TCU signee, outfielder Ryan Johnson of College Station (Texas), also has informed scouts of his desire to go to school in his own letter, sent by his father. Johnson began the year No. 41 on BA’s High School Top 100 but has had a poor spring and was not in BA’s Top 200. He struggled during the National High School Invitational in March.
