José Lind Salgado, nicknamed "Chico", (Born May 1, 1964) is a Puerto Rican former Major League Baseball (MLB) second baseman, and former manager of the Atlantic League's Bridgeport Bluefish. He is the cousin of Onix Concepción (another former MLB player). Primarily a second baseman, Lind was highly regarded for his defensive skills, winning a Gold Glove award in 1992. In 1982, Lind began his professional career by signing with the Pittsburgh Pirates as an undrafted free agent. He did not hit for much power as a prospect, totaling only four home runs in five minor league seasons, but his strong defense helped him ensure a place in the organization's plans. Lind made his major league debut with the Pirates on August 28, 1987, and the next day the Pirates traded incumbent second baseman Johnny Ray to the California Angels, clearing the full-time role for Lind. Lind would go on to play regularly for the Pirates for five more seasons, including the 1990–1992 squads that were the champions of the NL East. He never again equaled his rookie batting average of .322, but he contributed a strong defensive presence, winning a Gold Glove in 1992, which broke Ryne Sandberg's string of nine consecutive National League Gold Glove awards at second base and was the first by a Pirate second baseman since Bill Mazeroski's string of five consecutive awards from 1963–1967. He also acquired a reputation for whimsical behavior, as one might expect from a man nicknamed "Chico" (Spanish for "Boy"). The photo on his 1991 Upper Deck baseball card shows him jumping over the head of 5'11" teammate Mike LaValliere, and he often surprised fellow players in the clubhouse by playfully brandishing one of the many knives he kept in his locker.
