Baldwin, originally from Finley, went to Assumption College.[2] A wingman, Baldwin made two appearances late in the 1987 VFL season, then struggled with injuries, before returning to the seniors in 1990 and playing in the opening three rounds.[3][4]

He went to North Melbourne in the 1991 Pre-Season Draft, but didn't play a league game for the club.[5]
