WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES |
| Lindemuth took the phrase “take one for the team” to the extreme. The second baseman has been hit-by-pitch 64 times over his three seasons of college ball, the equivalent of just over one full major league season. He doesn’t take many walks or strike out a lot, so when he isn’t getting hit, he is putting the ball in play. Lindemuth also has a little bit of pop in his bat and showed strong stolen base skills as a sophomore, though that seemed to disappear in 2013. He started every game as a freshman and had a fairly strong prep resume, but was not drafted out of High School. He has another year of eligibility left, so he’s not a guarantee to sign. |
