    If Wren can't get significant salary relief he will just make Uggla compete for a roster spot. If Uggla ends up in AAA, so be it.
    Can't look back if the Braves move Uggla. Don't worry. Press on.

    After a little seasoning he needs to become our lead off guy.

    If I was Fredi looking at my roster in Sept and all I had in my arsenal was Elliot, you can believe I would be going to see him play in person at the very least.

    Dear Dan Uggla,

    You're services are no longer needed with the Atlanta Braves. Nothing personal.

    Sincerely,
    Braves Country

    Out of all 16 guys on the team, he is the only one with more walks than strike outs, and he now has 5 to 0. But he has done that his whole career. I simply do not know what else this guy has to do to make people believe he is for real. He is an on base machine.

    I'm not expecting a star but a really solid major leaguer.

    He is now at 6 walks and no K's. Just awesome.

    La Stella hitting .417 through four games with six walks, six RBIs and no strikeouts. It will aggravate me all winter that he didn't get a look-see.

    That's what i compared him to. If he's even close then we have a really good 2B on our hands.
