I take that "Paleo-Baltic" in the line quoted is simply a absent-minded error for Paleo-Balkan.
There is a theory, advanced particularly by Ivan Duridanov, that Paleo-Balkan (Thracian at least) does have a special relationship within Indo-European to Baltic, but this seems to be very much an individual opinion.

I've read Duridanov's on-line stuff but I don't know enough to tell whether he's on the mark in regard to his Baltic-Balkan branch. We've mentioned this subject  in the past but in case something new has pooped up or someone has some new insights into whether or not Duridanov's links to Baltic are truly on the mark or far-fetched
