DAN UGGLA RUMORS & GOSSIP
A closer look at Vince Belnome
Justin over at Chicken Friars sort of beat me to the punch on this article, with his recent piece on infielder Vince Belnome. It’s a good read and covers the basics of who Belnome is as a player and potential prospect. I won’t regurgitate too much of his analysis here (hence, the link); however, I will explore some of his performance in a bit more detail and go so far...

Dan Uggla Is Weird, Man
To say that last season was a roller coaster for Dan Uggla would be a compliment to any roller coaster. After a disastrous start that saw him hitting .170 at the beginning of June and under .200 until July 27th, Uggla went on a 33-game hitting streak that saw his average climb to .237. The awful start coined the term #Struggla, and he was a punchline until the hitting streak really...

This Week in Crazy Fans: Slapsgiving Comes Early
Let’s take a short jog down memory lane, shall we?
The month was May, and Dan Uggla couldn’t hit a baseball to save his ugly, stupid, annoying faux hawk’s life. Braves fans everywhere were getting pissy about the fact that @fauxfrankwren signed Sir Biceps of the Smedium Jersey to an extension without ever having seen him play in an Atlanta uniform. I took to calling...

Dan Uggla Breaks Career High in Home Runs
It is nice to take a break from the downer posts that I have had to write recently to look at something positive. Of course, the Atlanta Braves exploding last night for 7 runs and a win against the Marlins to lower their Magic Number to 10 games is nice. They had a solid pitching performance by rookie, Mike Minor, and two three-run homeruns from Brian McCann and Dan Uggla to carry...

Atlanta Braves second baseman Dan Uggla had his hit streak snapped at 33 games today when the Braves lost to the Chicago Cubs.

During the hit streak, Uggla hit .377 and brought his overall average up to .231. Although this hit streak...

Hitting Streak: Uggla Feeling Pressure; Breaks Off into Chunks
Things Could Get Uggla. And apparently they are.
ATLANTA (Sportsman’s Daily Wire Service) Achieving the unattainable. Over the years, baseball players have tried to break Joe DiMaggio’s 56 game hitting streak. Pete Rose came the closest in 1978 when he tied Wee Willie Keeler with a 44 game streak. Now Atlanta Braves second baseman Dan Uggla finds himself sitting on 31 straight...
