BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 51% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: I’ve waxed on about my love for Adam Lind enough times in this column that I won’t bore you with a long-winded rewrite. After his early season surge, Lind is slowly but surely turning on the gas again. He’s hit .375 through the month of June with a home run and 10 RBI. During this time, Lind has been the ultimate evidence that even on a weak offense like that of the Milwaukee Brewers, a locked in cleanup hitter can do a lot of damage.
There are downsides to Lind’s game of course. I’ve written numerous times about his inability to hit left handed pitching and the frequent rest days this deficiency results in. This might pose a real problem for our friends in head-to-head formats. In season long Roto formats, however, Lind’s rest days prove much less troublesome and his ability to crush right handed pitching more than makes up for his struggles against southpaws. Frankly, I’m excited to see what Lind might do next week when the Brewers take on the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. You should be too.
