Admiring Adam Lindby Paul SingmanSeptember 29, 2009 Paul has been managing fantasy baseball teams for many seasons and writing for THT Fantasy over the past year (and counting). In his first year competing in expert's leagues, he is both surprised and happy to say he finished in the top 30% of his three leagues. He welcomes readers' thoughts at his email here or in the comments below.

Lind certainly is not a free swinger, swinging at 44% percent of his pitches seen this year which is a little less than average. He’s double his walk rate this year to league-average 9.0% so overall you could classify him as having about average plate discipline. His high .327 BABIP (not necessarily lucky)and high Hr/Fb rate are what allow him to hit .300. Speaking of Hr/Fb percentages, Lind’s has shot up 1.5% tonight to 21.5% with his three home runs!

Great timing on Lind. Three homers last night. He beat the Sox singlehandedly. Posted 09/30 at 06:07 PM

Unfortunately Lind had to get hit by a pitch in the elbow in his final at bat last night so he is not available to power my fantasy team tonight… I hate Jonathan Papelbon for it.
I think Linds plate discipline will continue to improve, as it is, he averages 4.04 pitches per at bat, so he’s not necessarily a free swinger. I think that once pitchers start to respect Linds abilities his BB rate will go up.
