    Uggla is as bad as it gets with RISP, Uggla and BJ back-to-back is like old times too. Joey T should be starting today and EJ should be at his best position (second base), IMO. Oh well.

    First and second, no outs for Uggla, Upton, Garcia. If we sac bunt with Uggla, maybe just tell Upton and Garcia to stand there and hope for a walk or wild pitch.

    There really isn't going to be a happier day (other than maybe a WS title) than when Dan Uggla leaves.

    The good news is Flynn doesn't look good so far. Hopefully he doesn't settle in after getting out of two jams.

    Lol @ our three 'pitchers' hitting in a row. Uggla, BJ, (p). Awesome. I hope to g-d that Freddi dosen't play either of those jokers in the playoffs. And if he does, he better not play both at the same time. Can't afford to give up 9 autmoatic outs a game.

    I say we bench BJ and Dan for the rest of the season and hope they become disgruntled and want to get traded/released. We can then proceed to tell ok we will release/trade you but you will owe us half of what you are making because no one will take you at the price you are paid for your production. I just can't take this anymore...of course most of you on this board will come to BJ and Dan's rescue but these guys are terrible and some one in AAA who makes league minimum can produce as much as they are producing. It's ridiculous....

    I'm afraid we may have to do what we did with Lowe (or even KK) to get rid of Uggla now. He looks even worse since coming back.

    Just ran some numbers. Combine BJ & Uggla make $26,196,942 this year. At this moment they have 147 hits between them. That comes to a cost of $17,8210.49 per hit. They've done well, the Braves have suffered.

    The only option with Uggla is trade him for another bad contract. No sure who that may be?

    On gamecast, it looks like the umpire doesn't know where the strike zone is.

    Gattis has been about 90% of our offense since labor day.

    Tired of carrying Uggla and BJ. Maybe they should forfeit some of their money and buy the bear a blinged out cave for the winter.
