EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old proved a bargain at his $7.5 million price tag for 2015, as he hit .277/.360/.460 with 20 homers, 87 RBI and a career-high 66 walks in 149 games. Lind made the decision to pick up his option an easy one for Milwaukee, though the club still figures to entertain offers for the first baseman's services over the winter.
