Last night, they panned in on Lind and he was yawning on the bench, next half inning, Lawrie is in his ear, and Lind is laughing. You can just feel the difference he makes with the mentality of the club.
Especially someone like Lind, who needs it. I'm not to big on overvaluing intangibles, but even listening to Lind's interview last night, he's just a different type of guy. I'd imagine it's easy to get that way playing in Toronto in previous seasons to. Lawrie makes an impact and like I said, he's yet to really find his bat and hit for an extra basehit, but his hustle alone has got him on base and helped out in the field
