In 2008, Lin was chosen to play on the Taiwanese national baseball team at the 2008 Olympic Games. He also played in the 2010 Asian Games, and captained the national team in the inaugural WBSC Premier12 held in November 2015.

He is the first player to change teams since the implementation of free agency in 2010. The three-year deal, worth a guaranteed NT$45 million (US$1.36 million), is the richest in CPBL history, and also includes NT$9 million in incentives.
