Ryan Ludwick vs Adam Lind

[thatdamtom]

Yeah, I understand one person not pulling the trigger on Lind, but your whole league?

If he can hit LHP all year long, this guy is a top 20 OF.

He probably won't do that:

I guess hitting homers to deep center and opposite field is flukey

Yea it's that, or maybe because it's less than 25 ABs into the regular season.

For Lind to be Top 20 he's going to need Vladi Guerrero like numbers since he has no speed. I think he certainly has value in 5 OF leagues as he's either a late round or WW find, but don't go overboard.

I agree that he probably won't, but if he somehow has an epiphany and figures them out he will be...until then he is a platoon/3rd-4th OFer.

If he batters Cliff Lee today, he'll come off my bench fo sho.

Lind has really improved with Cito Gaston / Gene Tenace coaching.

Adam Lind with an RBI single off south paw Cliff Lee.

[Slow Pitch]

2 hits & an RBI again today for Lindy.

Ludwick on the bench again today for the 2nd time this week so that Rasmus & Duncan can play.

[Diamond Miners]

well we'll find out next week about him hitting lefties as he's scheduled to face: Perkins (Min), Liriano (Min), Outman (Oak), Braden (Oak) in 4 of his 7 games next week. Liriano, Outman, Braden are consecutive games and apparently he is going to get the ABs against them. I myself am benching him next week even though he typically hits the Twins well.
