Adam Lind is looking forward to an improved 2013 season offensively, and said Saturday that he is incredibly confident in new Blue Jays hitting coach Chad Mottola. Lind indicated that he was receiving mixed messages over the past few seasons, where former Jays manager John Farrell preached patience at the plate while hitting coach Dwayne Murphy wanted him to be aggressive. Lind was hitting .227/.298/.394 with eight homers through 198 at-bats before a mid-season demotion in 2012. After working with Mottola, who was the Triple-A hitting coach at the time, Lind hit .301/.341/.447 with three homers and 18 RBI over his final 35 games.
