i hope we don't overpay Jeter
LOOOOB.  u will
i say we should cut ties with him if he wants too much
Cliff Lee is a bigger focus for the yankees then he is anyway

Hell yeah! U kept my MLB offseason thread picture! lol
Micool said:
I just merged them now hahahaha
props on the merging

and props on the picture bro
I don't think the Yanks should get Jeter.

going for a long term deal for a guy at the age of 34-35, that's a big mistake.  Look young right now, they have an aging team.
Bravs getting Uggla, they're favorite to win that division IMO.  Uggla best hitting 2B in the league.

Let them overpay for a rangeless old shortstop.

Not named Robinson Cano or Chase Utley.
all the reds needs are to expensive to get.
Lol @ Uggla being the best hitting 2B in the league. Power Wise yes, other than that not even close.
Lake said:

Ugglas consistent and the best power hitter still.

you're telling me

2010: 33 homeruns, .287, 105 RBIs
2009: 31 homeruns, .243, 90 RBIs
2008: 30 homeruns, .260, 77 RBIs

his numbers are getting BETTER.

Chase Utleys numbers are declining, look at the numbers bro and Robinson Cano i'll admit is the only 2B with numbers better than Uggla.  Yet i'm not sold because he plays in the small park in New York.  But come on bro you cannot deny his numbers are getting better.

good. The Braves need someone that can hit homeruns
Uggla is the Adam Dunn of second basemen. Hits for power but is very suspect batting for average

i'm just saying, looking at it.  Last 3 seasons, it's improving.  BA wise.

His HR numbers are consistently the same every year, defensively hes BAD, and he's a career .260 or something like that with last year being his highest yet. What about his OBP too? From what I've seen he does strikeout A LOT. I would take guys like Utley, Brian Roberts, Ian Kinsler, etc before him
