The Milwaukee Brewers have picked up the $8 million team option on Adam Lind's contract for 2016.

The Brewers could have bought him out for $500,000.

He was acquired before last season in a trade that sent pitcher Marco Estrada to the Toronto Blue Jays and finished with a .277 average, 32 doubles, 20 home runs and 87 RBIs in 149 games.
