Gonzalo Linear  
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players

Pitching
His fastball gets into the high 80s, but it's the sink that makes the pitch effective. Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! He walks too many hitters and throws too many pitches. He traditionally fares better against lefties.

Defense & Hitting
His pickoff move is merely average. Linear is nothing special in the field. Linear is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Linear has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Linear as a pinch-runner on occasion.

2025 Outlook
Linear flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Linear.
