I give Lind credit that he's made up for lack of power with hitting for a high average. Francisco seems to be plummeting to earth swinging at balls no where near the strike zone that even Stevie Wonder wouldn't swing at.
I might be in the minority but I'd say they should just decline his option for next year, or pick it up and try dealing him for anything they can get. His power numbers were gone this year and his back is ongoing issue.
They said earlier in the year he wouldn't need it, it's precautionary and now it looks like it might be inevitable. Should have just done it earlier and gotten it over with. Hopefully they'll keep him around if he can get healthy.
