    Brewers Video

    Adam Alan Lind was born in Muncie, Indiana and attended Highland High School in nearby Anderson. He was named Indiana Mr. Baseball by the Indiana high school baseball coaches after batting .675 with 15 doubles, three triples, 16 home runs, and 47 RBIs his senior year. The southpaw swinging first sacker was picked in the 8th round of the 2002 MLB Amateur Draft by the Minnesota Twins but elected not to sign, instead attending the University of South Alabama. Lind had a nice sophomore year, batting .392 with 12 home runs and 60 RBIs and was selected in the third round of the 2004 MLB Draft by the Toronto Blue Jays.

    Lind moved rapidly through the Blue Jays chain, making his big-league debut at the end of his third season. He did not disappoint, slashing .367/.415/.600 across 60 at-bats.

    The big (6-foot-2, 195-pound) slugger split the next two seasons between Toronto and Triple-A Syracuse. He broke out in 2009, winning a Silver Slugger Award for Toronto on the strength of his .305/.370/.562 batting line with 35 homers and 114 RBIs.

    Over the next five years, Lind missed a few games due to injury and slumps but still slashed .265/.321/.450 with 89 home runs in 607 games. After the 2014 campaign, Lind was traded to the Brewers for pitcher Marco Estrada.

    Lind had a nice season for the Brewers with an OPS+ of 126 and bWAR of 3.6, which was best on the team. After the season he was traded to the Seattle Mariners for two minor league pitchers and Freddy Peralta.

    He spent 2016 with the Mariners and slipped a bit with an OPS+ of 94 with 20 home runs and moved to the Washington Nationals the next year as a free agent. He slashed .303/.362/.513 across 267 at-bats with 14 home runs as a part-time starter.

    In 2018, Lind played in the Yankees and Red Sox organizations but was released by the Red Sox in August. Lind finished his major league career with 200 home runs and a batting line of .272/.330/.465.

    Inside The Milwaukee Brewers Players Project: Unsung Brewers Heroes of 2015

    The 2015 version of the Milwaukee Brewers was not a good club, limping to a 68-94 mark, 32 games behind the St. Louis Cardinals in the NL Central. Manager Ron Roenicke was canned after a 7-18 start and was replaced by Craig Counsell. The trio of players featured in this piece were among the best players on that team.
