A 6-foot-4, 235-pound power pitcher who struck out 73 in 48.2 innings last spring, Linder works in the 92-94 mph range with his high-spin heater. He compliments that swing/miss offering with another in his low-80s curveball that spins over 3000+ rpm, while adding an upper-80s cutter.

Texas A&M commit. 6-foot-3, 205-pound right-handed pitcher and left-handed hitting third baseman, broad shoulders, strong, physical frame, advanced lower half. On the mound, long, clean arm action, accelerates with advanced arm speed to a high ¾ slot, repeats well. Drop and drive delivery, gets into his strong lower half, high front-side, works on-line, lands strong, finishes with a slight cross over. Fastball sat 88-90, touched 91, riding action (2581 rpm), good feel for and pounded the zone for swing and misses. Curveball, 72-74, 12/6 shape, depth, potential swing and miss pitch. Offensively, balanced setup, hands drop and load back, leg kick timing trigger, good balance. Takes a power/pull approach, barrel path works long and uphill with some lift, looks to elevate and do damage with each swing, 91 exit velocity off a tee. Defensively, long, quick arm to a high ¾ slot, 88 across the infield. Moves well on the left-side for his size, attacks the ball with fluid footwork, clean glove work and transfers.
