Looking a hell of a lot better than he has in a long time.

Imagining this lineup with Uggla producing is amazing. I mean its been a given that he struggles last few years.

This is going to sound crazy, but I was watching video a couple of weeks ago on YouTube of Uggla and noticed back in his Marlins days (when he obviously had much better numbers), he was finishing with his bat very high after swinging almost like a helicopter (similar to how McGriff used to finish his swing). He hasn't been doing it this year until very recently and he's all of a sudden making solid contact.

Wow, I just realized he has 42 K's in 111 AB's coming in to tonight. That's worse than facing Kimbrel every at bat.

Walker has been working with him to get back to his 06 swing.

He started out with a bunch of HRs; ended up in the All-Star game. but then just shat all over himself

Kimbrel struck out over 50% of the hitters he faced last year

Uggla had the helicopter finish during the 2nd half in 2011 when he was absolutely raking.

Sometimes he does it on strikeouts, but the swings he's been putting on the ball recently are the best in a year+.
