    He was released by the Braves today. Maybe a change of scenery is what he needs. Can he be worse than Roberts? I am just praying Cashman brings in a new 3rd baseman by the deadline. I cannot stand to watch Johnson anymore.

    ...I'm with ya Jeets, but IMO, going from Johnson to Uggla is like going from walmart to kmart. :lol:

    I know 59 I am just grasping at straws. I sure hope something good falls into the Yankees laps between now and the 31st.

    ...I feel your frustration...they've been so disappointing thus far, that it's hard not to look for answers everywhere.

    It would be nice if they could pull off a deal for Beltre.

    Dan Uggla literally went to shit, ever since he became a Brave....He's washed up, had a short prime for a career, if you wan't to call it that.

    Saw Uggla Play A+ ball for the local team, when it was the D'Backs Club, in 02. Decent, not bad, could tell he was going somewhere, but like most, burned out to early.

    I wouldn't pick up Uggla for a bat boy.....Uggla a appros name for an Uggla fielding anemic hitter....

    years, later, the local team, franchise changed (several times) from D'Backs to Stro's. Last good 2nd baseman to play here, was Jose Altuve in 2012.

    whoa there. for every run Uggla knocks in, he gives two back
    with his 'definitive' fielding. This Yankee team makes enough
    errors....forget his sidebar activities. lol

    J/K but no shit- Alba is honestly a 6th distant cousin of my Klan....so is Jack Kerouac, but that is neither here nor there. The bitch won't share her fortune or looks. so eff her too....LOL....
