can he play 3rd/2nd?
I saw that, I wonder if we're really interested.
"average range and arm strength suggests a future at second base"
Yeah, he's been around a 1.0 OPS the last three years. I'd look at him for sure.
Actually is quite comical how the Dodgers are throwing around money at a more ridiculous rate like the early 2000's Yankees.

#Braves have evaluated Cuban SS Alexander Guerrero, interested if price is right. Would move to 2B or 3B, obviously not play SS for ATL
I'd take the risk. More of these guys are working out.

Dodgers will be back on bottom before too long. Ethier contract is already looking like an albatross. Kemp's may be as well if he can't stay on the field. Crawford and Gonzo will be in Ethier category before too long. Some awful, awful, contracts they have.

The fact they're taking a look at him, leads me to believe that perhaps the Braves have become disenchanted with Dan Uggla and are looking for a replacement.

If the Braves agree to pickup a large portion of Uggla's contract, I suspect there may be a handful of teams with interest. As has been discussed here ad naseum already, he's approximately a league average 2B (he's just drastically overpaid). However since the remainder of his contract term is short, and most everything can be solved with throwing in money, I think those who think there won't be a market will be somewhat surprised (perhaps not pleasantly - I'm not saying we'll get back anything of value for him).
