If Dan latches on with some other club on a minor league deal and hits .260/.360/.480 in August and September, I swear to God I am murdering someone. Just flat killing someone in cold blood.

I think the chances of that happening are less than the chances of peace in the Middle East.

Could save a little if some team takes a chance on him.
How could we save?

I'll hate the baseball gods forever if he somehow winds up owning us in the future.
But I'm not going to bash him anymore. I wish him the best of luck. It was right for both us and him to move on.

The new team has to sign him and the old team only pays the difference.

Yeah. The whole thing about adding Gosselin to the 40 man and then sending him back down suggests that they kind of were hoping even last week to find a way to get out from under at least a small part of Uggla's salary.

I declate July 18th as a braves holiday. Happy Independance from Uggla day everyone.

Some team will take a chance on him for the minimum (next year, at the very least).

Uggla's play and continued presence on the roster lessened my fan experience, and he was paid massively (and will continue to be). I don't really have any sympathy. If he finds it too upsetting, I guess he can just go buy a car, or swap STDs with a porn star, or whatever.

Tyler Pastornicky called up from Gwinnett, I would imagine until Gosselin can return.

But no team is going to sign him up and be responsible for what the Braves owe

Of course not, but if they sign him to the minimum the Braves still save a little, which is what I was talking about.
Possible. I got ya.

Dear Dan: I was so excited when we traded for and then extended you....a rock solid, consistent RH power source in the middle of our lefty-heavy lineup. Oh, what promise the future held...Marlins fans hung Jeff Loria in effigy because he wouldn't give you that fifth year...Braves fans rejoiced when Wren locked you in...just as we did when he dealt for budding star Nate McLouth.
Then you ****ing lost it. Completely. Thanks a lot, pudwanker.
I'm not worried about him going .360/.480 for somebody else. I'm worried about him killing somebody on the road.

That would be my thoughts, but it's hard to say with our front office. I like Pastor, but It's time to start moving on with players. Let's see what Gosselin does. We give Tommy a shot and he only hits .292 in his first couple months of service.

I wouldn't be shocked if Reds have him signed before weekend is out.
