Adam Lind lifted from game: lower back tightness

[miggs721]

Any guesses where he is headed?

[wichmae]

Hopefully not the DL

TV cameras apparently showed Lind grimacing after his 1st inning K. #Brewers haven't made any announcement yet about his early exit.

Lovely a trade chip we can't trade.

[superfly]

That's just grand. Pull Parra before he gets hurt as well please?

Oh man that ain't good at all....hopefully it isn't serious, if it is: can always pick up his option for 2016 & trade him in the offseason though

Trade value will be much lower them though. Inflated value mid season in a weak market plus a year more of control.

You are correct. Still, a player like Lind should land at least a fairly strong return in the offseason (i.e. not all is lost)

Now if Parra gets injured...that would be a minor disaster. If Lind is out past the deadline they need to just prepare to trade Parra sooner rather than later.

Being that we're 3 innings since he was pulled, seems there may be a trade to me. Knowing our luck though he pulled a back muscle or something.

1B Adam Lind left tonight's game with low back tightness. #MILvsARI

[MrTPlush]

Lower back tightness!

 

Trade value going waaaaaay down

Here's the McCalvy article, which includes Telly's report.

[And That]

I think I mentioned last week that we should be trading Lind before his back acts up. Yup.

 

But all is not lost of he's back on the field by Tuesday. And AL teams may be slightly less worried if they are planning on giving him DH time.

Well since his back has been bothering him for over a week even then it would have been the same problem. He would have went for a physical and not come out well.

[And That]

His back has been bothering him for a number of years. Any team that trades for him (Brewers included) are going to have to know that his back is a constant risk. It's also been a manageable risk at least in the recent past. If he shows that he can at least swing without discomfort, his value won't be too impinged by this.

So how long are we going to play without a 1B when we have 13 pitchers and Rogers raking in AAA?

Lind available to PH tonight and Peterson is playing 1B tonight who has hit very well this season. No reason to make a move unless Lind will be out for awhile.

We did it for a couple seasons, so it really should be old hat at this point.
