Prior to Maine: Carlos hails from Venezuela before moving to Miami where he attends Christopher Columbus High School. Following in the footsteps of Danny Casals, Nick Silva, Hernen Sardinas and Slinky Mederos, Carlos will be coming from Columbus up to the University of Maine. At Columbus, Carlos will be a three year starter in center field. In 2018, Linares had a 1.000 fielding percentage in the outfield. MaxPreps has ranked Carlos as the #19 OF in the State of Florida.

"Carlos comes continues a long line of guys coming from Columbus HS in Miami. His ability to track baseballs and swing it from the left side will further deepen our outfield for years to come. He is a hard worker and a very good student that has shown the ability to overcome adversity at a young age." -- Nick Derba
