Atlanta Braves second baseman Dan Uggla is selling his Franklin, Tenn., estate for $1.125 million


I had no idea he lived in TN, but hopefully this is a sign he's leaving

Ran into Tim Hudson walking into the stadium before the game Saturday.

He cuts in front of me to a trash can to throw away a beer (and crack another one). He says 'Hey. Hows it going?' and it takes me a second to make the connection. I finally figure it out and shake his hand and tell him 'Good. I'm ready for the game.' My buddy asks how his ankle is doing and we tell him good luck in San Fransisco. As we separate I thank him for all the years in Atlanta and he turns back and says 'Thanks, that means a lot.'

:CSB:

I'm seeing talk of a Braves/Angels trade

Kendrick to Atlanta although I am not sure who Braves would trade back. Angels need SP/RP help

Not sure how that would work unless we can unload Uggla.

That doesn't seem likely.

Probably unload Uggla and pay majority of his salty to the Angels? Along with prospects/or young pitcher? At least in AL Uggla could DH or something, Angels trying to move Trumbo as well

Doesn't sound like the Braves are going to give away Uggla. They can't really afford to tbh.

He is going to be the 2B unless they can get out from a significant portion of his contract imo.

They definitely can't afford to pay the majority of his contract and give away a significant piece for his replacement in addition to what they would owe Kendrick or whoever.

Angels could agree to eat most of contract for a better player in return as well

Now appears that if #Nationals sign a LH reliever, it will be Howell or Downs. Other clubs getting feeling O'Flaherty will go back to Braves

I'm betting we stick with Uggla at 2nd and probably go out and get an arm for the bullpen. Everything else will probably be internal moves like calling guys up. I think the FO is happy with the rotation at this time. We might kick the tires on a veteran starter, but I don't think it will be a huge name like the rumored David Price a few weeks ago.
