Milwaukee Brewers: Disciples of Uecker

Lind: Lefties, 1B Value, & Swings: Although many fans clamored for a first-base platoon for Milwaukee, veteran Adam Lind effectively improved his performance against southpaws. He is dividing his strike zone for power and batting average, which is also a source for potential improvement. Even though Lind is basically average at first base and one of the best bats on the Brewers, a few adjustments to his swinging approach could yield an even stronger performance.
