Drafted 2004 - Third round from College

Lind is a hitter, period. Lind might make it as a leftfielder but could end up at first base. Lind is not a speed threat on the bases, but he can hit. Ken Griffey was his favourite player growing up and he has the same sweet left handed swing.

MLB: tall, well prop build. Broad shoulders. Room to fill out. Built like Todd Helton. Upright, slightly spread out at plate. Gets bat head through the zone. Shows power to all fields. Nice set-up at plate. Arm is playable w/ some carry. Better runner underway.

Baseball America: Lind is a draft-eligible sophomore who will go as far as his bat takes him. He's put together a consistent career for South Alabama,showing a fluid stroke with good bat speed and raw power potential. His swing played well with wood last summer as he hit .269 (well above league average) in the Cape Cod League. Lind isn't a great athlete, making him a fringy defender in left field and better suited for first base.


2005 Outlook

After a successful debut at Low A, Lind will move up to High A or A.

2004

Lind was the best hitter at Auburn this summer. Lind led the team in batting average, RBI's and extra base hits, and also had the lowest strikeout ratio. Lind's sweet swing delivered 23 doubles and 7 home runs.
