Drafted in the 9th round (272nd overall) by the Milwaukee Brewers in 2013 (signed for $125,000).
View Draft Report
After a solid sophomore season, Linehan could not find a consistent role with Fresno State this year. He split time between the bullpen and the rotation, making it tough for scouts to know when he was going to pitch. He has a stocky build at 6 feet and 240 pounds. At his best, his fastball sits in the 88-91 mph range, topping out at 93, with good movement and late armside run. His best secondary pitch is a cutter, and he mixes in a curveball and a changeup. Linehan is a bulldog on the mound, but battles his command at times and profiles as a power arm out of the bullpen.
