If you ask most MLB hitters what the hardest pitch to hit is, most are going to tell you it the hard slider. In todays game most would probably tell you Randy Johnsons in his day and I would venture to think that Riveras cutter would be mentioned a time or two. Good hitters have the ability to stay back and go the other way and still have quick enough hand to hit the FB. Thats what makes them a Pro.
As far as Linceome, great mound awareness, great FB, Cu that is identical to his Fb and then you throw in a CB that will make you look bad. All this combined with the fact that he pounds the strike zone with all pitches makes him the all star he has become. Pretty small,max effort, hope he stays together.....jmho like him more with a trim,,lol
