Lind and Clement

Adam Lind of the Blue Jays and Jeff Clement of the Mariners both hit their first home runs of the season last night. Both players are highly touted prospects within their respective organizations.

Lind was called up from AAA after Marcum was placed on the DL. He was hitting .328, 6HR, 50RBI's in 189AB's. This kid can hit if he is given the chance.

Clement was called up from AAA and was hitting .337, 14HR, 43RBI all in 172AB's. After being sent down earlier this year Clement found his swing and it has translated into a 2nd chance at the big leagues. He is suppose to be the starting C for the Mariners, especially since Johjima is tearing up the bench lately, so look for Clement to fill some stats for you in the C position (as long as he gets accustomed to big league pitching).
