González signed with the Dodgers as an international free agent in 2012 and worked his way through the minor leagues. He missed the 2017 season due to injury and did not play in 2022 because of elbow problems that required surgery. In 2021 he appeared in 44 games with a 3.57 ERA. After spending 2023 mainly in the majors with the Dodgers, he moved to the Yankees in 2024, where he posted a 3.86 ERA in 27 games before being designated for assignment in June and later released in September. In December 2024, he signed a minor league contract with the Los Angeles Angels and spent 2025 in their system, appearing in both Triple-A and Single-A games with a 2-0 record, 3.89 ERA, 35 strikeouts, and 5 saves in 41 2/3 innings. He elected free agency on November 6, 2025.
