Since this thread no longer has a point and this doesn't deserve it's own thread... LOL at this email from StubHub

Got the same email- I was wondering what the heck happened to marlins park- it didn't help I had woken up from a drunken stupor and was going through my emails a minute later

You immediately thought you went back in time... lol

I thought there was a fire, some type of Norman Braman condemnation of the premises-

 

 

Or worse-

 

 

Stanton really did break the stadium.

Talk about doding a bullet - imagine if the Marlins had locked him in for 4/48?

 

I was happy at the time that they stood their ground. They made him a great, fair offer. The team that was willing to shoot themselves in the foot was the team that won; good for them.

The Braves are on the hook for the rest of his contract. Him signing here isn't a bad thing. At the worst he gives us the same zero production we've gotten from Solano. At his best we maybe get a little of the ol' Uggla back.

 

It's definitely worth a shot imo.

I think he's worth a shot for the Rockies, or some other hitter friendly team in need of second base help. Marlins Park is probably the worst place for him to continue his career.

It's bad for a guy who has gap power to hit at a park with huge gaps? I understand your viewpoint, but it's incredibly naive. If Uggla regains his stroke, I guarantee you he'll do just fine at whatever park he's playing at. If he doesn't...then he'll be back on the free agent market soon enough.

But he doesn't have gap power. Christian Yelich has gap power. Those HR's don't become doubles at Marlins Park, they become outs. He's not a guy spraying line drives around the outfield, he hits big fly balls that are either out of the park or out in a glove.

 

Even when he was a decent player, he made comments back in '12 about how he would hit a ball at Marlins Park and start trotting... then it ends up being an out. He needs a bandbox.

I only want Uggla if he is willing to issue some kind of statement saying the Marlins were right in not offering him a bigger contract in 2010. Thank u sir.

He were being horrible against lefty.

Even he played hitter-friendly ballpark, there was no sign to improve offense and defense, absolutely.

 

Just forget about him.
