Hey guys, I'm pretty new to this forum, however I have been reading it for quite some time (just never posted). I have pieced together a workout routine from what I have available to me ( a home gym machine ) and from what I have read on this site, and I want to make sure that it is not too much, too little, or perhaps wrong for my certain goals. I am 6'4, and weigh 183 pounds, and a bit overweight. Not horribly so, just enough to make me mad in such a way that I want to work to change it. Also, I want/need to build up some muscle in order to help my pitching, so that perhaps I will have a chance at making Varsity this year. Anyways, here is my workout schedule, and any input you can provide will be greatly appreciated. (please note that I have only been doing this for one week, and like I said its a new schedule and any advice would be greatly appreciated!). I broke it down into numbered days, instead of specific days, so that if I feel I just can't do it one day, I can carry it over to the next.
Day 1 -
Upper body machine workout, includeing Ab's. ( consisting of vertical bench press, inclined and declined bench press, pectoral fly's - inclined/declined, Lat pulldowns, Row, Curls). 4 sets of 8-10 reps.
Run 20 Min
Day 2 -
Lower body machine workout, including ab's. ( not sure of all leg exercizes, but working hamstrings, quads, and thigh's )
Run 20 min
Day 3 -
Warmup run 5 min, then:
5 sets of sprints, consisting of 30 sec sprint followed immidiatly by 90 second 6.0 mph jog
Cooldown run 5 min.
Day 4 -
Heavy weightless workout, full body. Pushups, dips, squats, pullups, cruches, everything.
Day 5 -
Endurance run 25 min
Day 6 -
Endurance run 30 min
Light/Medium Weightless workout
Day 7 -
Rest.
Thanks for your time in reading this, and like I have mentioned repetitivly above, any help, comments, suggestions or ideas will be Greatly appreciated!

You need to split that up throughout the week. Chest one day, arms the next, after that hit back, legs, etc.. There's no problem doing 20 min of cardio a day, but at 6'4" 183, IMO you need to pack some REAL mass on.
