Adam Lind is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Red Sox. Lind is just getting the day off. Edwin Encarnacion will play first base while Ben Francisco will serve as the Jays' designated hitter.

Adam Lind went 2-for-4 with an RBI and run scored in Sunday's loss to the Indians. The RBI was Lind's first of the season, while the hits were just his second and third. Lind had an extremely rough second half season (.197/.233/.356), but turned in a solid spring and boasts an enviable position in the Blue Jays' batting order. He'll be good for at least 20 home runs.

Adam Lind (back) played four innings in Sunday's game in his return to action and didn't have any issues. Lind said after the game that he's "right on track for Opening Day." The 28-year-old has been nursing some tightness in his lower back, but he appears to be past it now.

Adam Lind (back) hit in an indoor batting cage Friday and is on track to return to the lineup Sunday. He's been dealing with tightness in his lower back since early this week, but it's starting to subside. Barring a setback, Lind should be fine for Opening Day.

Adam Lind (back) is scheduled to take batting practice Friday. Lind was shut down for three days after feeling tightness in his lower back on Tuesday. This is the same injury which sent him to the disabled list for a month last year, so there is some concern that this could be a lingering issue. We should know more about his status after he hits Friday.

Adam Lind will miss at least the next three days due to tightness in his lower back. Not good. This is the same issue Lind dealt with last year and Blue Jays manager John Farrell admitted that this is a situation that will need to be monitored throughout the season. It's difficult to speculate about his availability moving forward, but the Blue Jays could bring David Cooper back from the minor league side if he requires a DL-stint.

Adam Lind was scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the Yankees with tightness in his back. It's probably safe to call him day-to-day. Lind is batting .306 (11-for-36) with two homers and eight RBI this spring and is projected to serve as the Jays' starting first baseman and cleanup hitter this season.

Adam Lind homered, doubled and walk to lead the Jays in their 6-5 win over the Red Sox on Sunday. Since we wrote up Lind's poor performance on Wednesday, he's gone 5-for-9 with two homers, six RBI and two walks in three games. It looks like he'll be the team's cleanup hitter on Opening Day after all.

Adam Lind had a three-run homer and an RBI triple Saturday in the rout of the Braves. The triple was a flyball lost in the sun by Matt Diaz, but the homer was legitimate. It was Lind's first in 34 at-bats this spring. He entered with a total of three RBI for the month.

Adam Lind went 0-for-3 on Wednesday and is hitting .207 with two RBI in 28 at-bats this spring. Lind is penciled in as the Blue Jays' cleanup hitter, but Brett Lawrie, Edwin Encarnacion and Travis Snider are all having much better springs while hitting behind him in the order. If Lind does't pick it up soon, the Jays might try Encarnacion or Lawrie behind Jose Bautista.
