ADAM LIND RUMORS & GOSSIP
Player Profile #112: Adam Lind | 1B | TOR
Maybe I’m just a sucker, but I can’t get Adam Lind‘s 2009 season out of my head. Was it a fluke or will he one day get back to that level? Right now it looks like 2009 is the outlier, which isn’t good news for those who have invested in him in keeper leagues. Since 2009, his plate discipline has deteriorated to the point where he hasn’t posted an OBP...

The Great Big 2012 Blue Jays Forecast Series, Part 2: Adam Lind
With spring training officially just under a month away, I thought now would be a good time to start a series of projections on what the 2012 Toronto Blue Jays might look like. Each day (don’t hold me to this), I will profile a 2012 Blue Jays starter, closing with a set of numbers based on my (usually positive) expectations. Today, we’ll take a closer look at what 2012...

Adam Lind Player Projection No. 139
Key Stats: After an out of this world HR:FB rate of 19.8% in 2009, Adam Lind dropped to 13.3% in what turned out to be a very disappointing 2010 season. Last year it seemed Lind discovered the baby bear's porridge as his HR:FB rate finished at 17%. At that rate, he would have easily jacked 30 home runs if he had not missed 37 games.
Skeptics Say: The batting average has been...

Adam Lind Comes To The Rescue Again; Blue Jays Walk Off On Orioles In Extras
After a weekend that can only be known as the Boston Massac…you know what, it doesn’t even matter anymore; I’ve already forgotten all about it. In any case, the Blue Jays got back on the winning track today against the AL East basement-dwelling Orioles. The victory didn’t come easily though, as the Jays needed extra-inning heroics from Adam Lind to turn a...

Yeah, Adam Lind Is Back: 2 HR Day Carries Blue Jays Over Orioles
When Adam Lind finally returned to the Blue Jays line up last night, I thought that it was going to take a bit of an adjustment period before he caught up to big league game speed; apparently, Lind didn’t get the memo about taking some time to get used to MLB pitching again, as the 0-3 last night was all the adjustment he needed. Lind came to work today to pick up right where...

Fantasy Baseball's Line of the Day: 04/26/2011
1B/OF/DH Adam Lind of the Toronto Blue Jays went 3-for-5 with two home runs, five RBI and three runs scored in a 10-3 win over the Texas Rangers. It was his fifth career multihomer game and his third at Rangers Ballpark, where he now has nine home runs in his last 12 games. Line: 5 AB, 3 R, 3 H, 5 RBI; 2 HR
My fantasy perspective: Lind's batting average has crept its way up...

Adam Lind Loves Hitting In Texas; Blue Jays Win a Laugher Over Rangers
In 30 career games against the Texas Rangers, Blue Jays first baseman Adam Lind owns a .996, along with 12 home runs and 33 RBIs – I think to say that Lind excels against the Rangers might be a bit of an understatement. Lind added to those lofty totals today in Arlington with yet another monster performance against the Rangers, notching a pair of homers along with 5 RBIs en...

Adam Lind Pesky Pole Home Run Ball Controversially Overturned
Adam Lind hit a ball against the Red Sox Friday night that was initially ruled a home run but was later overturned by the umpires. The ball landed between Pesky’s Pole and the spot on the wall where the yellow line is drawn, making it a foul ball. Here’s a picture of the play caught [...]

Faith in an Adam Lind Bounce Back
In 2009, Adam Lind led a Blue Jays offense that finished eighth in the majors in runs scored. His .394 wOBA topped the team by a significant margin, and his .257 ISO was unrivaled by any player with more than 150 PA (sorry, Randy Ruiz). It stood to reason that Lind, a highly touted prospect whom the Blue Jays brought along slowly, had experienced a breakout year and would continue...

Blue Jays 2011 Fantasy Profile: Adam Lind Makes Up For Lost Time
When it comes time to prepare for fantasy drafts, many team owners use the common strategy of using stats from the season prior to the last to scout players. Fantasy baseball season is a long and arduous journey every year, and injured players/fantasy busts can easily end up as prime sleeper picks; in 2010, Adrian Beltre and Kelly Johnson were such players, coming from nowhere to...
