Seriously?  There's got to be less than 1,000 people at the game.

I've had Uggla on my fantasy teams the last 3 years.  He gives you HR's and RBI's and a decent number of runs, with a low BA.  That's what you live with.  I don't care about LOB or fielding.  There is nobody on waivers at 2B who can supply that power.  And he's streaky, hot and cold.  The hots are nice.

Name        AVG     R   HR   RBI   SB
Dan Uggla  .225   38   15   45   1

I also have Fla's Nolasco & Jorge Cantu, who qualifies at 1B and 3B, but he rotates on and off my bench, mostly with Aubrey Huff,  but also with Nick Johnson, Chipper Jones, and Justin Morneau, depending on off days and matchups.


With a man on, even Bonifacio is 3.7 times more likely to drive him in than Uggla.

.224 average and lead glove defense at 2B.

But its his arm that is REALLY scary.

I would never take Morneau out of my lineup.

Minnesota sat him to rest June 21st; every fantasy news service went ballistic, with questions about whether he was [cross fingers]injured[/cross fingers].  He never sits and has exceeded my expectations.  I haven't looked at the All Star balloting, but the AL fans are crazy if Morneau is not #1.

10 straight for Scott.

Once again, Cantu makes 3rd out so Uggla will be leading off an inning.  Danny's gonna be pissed for not being able to leave guys on.  Bet the throws one about 8 feet over Cantu's head to vent his frustration.

Nick Johnson is 0 for his last 20, while Uggla is batting .300 (yes) for his last 20 ABs.   
I dumped zero-power Guzman during his slump and picked up Nick-at-Nite, but he's been on my bench lately, prompting me to check out waivers. 

Cantu... ANOTHER K...  and Huff have both been slumping lately...

Well, at least Acta won't have to make a decision on whether or not to pull Olsen in a tie game.    :?
