Hitting
Belinsky seems to become especially focused in big situations. Belinsky never has been a patient hitter. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency. You can expect Earl Belinsky to hit the ball to the opposite field... that's just the kind of hitter he is.
Baserunning & Defense
When you play Belinsky you're not putting him in for his glove. His biggest problem in the field simply has to be his throwing arm... it's well below par. He has below-average speed and is stiff on the basepath. He's poor on a straight steal but has some success at reading pitchers and working a delayed steal.
2025 Outlook
Belinsky has below average skills, even for the low minors. One has to expect the Retired or Inactive Players will give him his walking papers before the end of the season.
