This is all jumbled up. Go look at Jon Doyle's advice for P90X. Search around and you will find what you are looking for.

Just as a FYI what you have is a "traditional" work out that is all messed up. Normally you non baseball work outs like you have listed you have the push/pull work out where you do chest/arms, back/tri's, leg/shoulders as set days that you work through with a good cardio day. This is NOT what you want to do for baseball.

Focus on core, legs, olympic lifts, and compound movements. Track days should be sprint oriented, 100's, 150's, and 30's depending on day.

Good luck!
I would agree with BOF that it's all jumbled up. Also it looks like a lot of work for the muscle groups on that day and would end up with deminishing returns unless you are genetically gifted and/or using artificial enhancements. Looks like something one finds in the glossy mags at the store that feature guys that have a large drug bill and couldn't throw or hit better than a good 12 yr. old ballplayer. If you need to flat out build muscle, then a good basic 6-8 compound exercise routine done for 1-2 sets twice a week can work wonders, if you work hard enough. After you have put on the needed 10-20lb, then you better get on a baseball specific program for baseball enhancement and whatever more weight to come along.
