Lind was traded from Toronto to Milwaukee on Saturday in exchange for Marco Estrada, Blue Jays' announcer Mike Wilner reports. The Blue Jays had just picked up Lind's $7.5 million option for 2015, so the Brewers may only have him for one season, but it definitely fills a significant hole at first base in the short term. Milwaukee will need to pair Lind with a platoon partner, as he really should only face righties, whom he slashed .354/.409/.533 against in 2014. This doesn't have a major impact on Lind's fantasy value, as he would have had a major role as the Blue Jays' DH in 2015, but it makes the Brewers' lineup against right-handed pitching noticeably better for the upcoming season.
