The Marlins brass has been on the record stating that they are listening to offers from other clubs, and they have not been clear if Uggla could be on the market. Everyone knows the Marlins are sellers at the moment.
And despite all that production,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Uggla is going under the radar. And that is regrettable. Even if the Marlins’ playoff hopes are gone, this is a player right now to watch.
It is true that the Marlins are Hanley Ramirez’s team, just like the Heat is Dwayne Wade's team. But Uggla could be the LeBron James to Ramirez's Wade.
At the moment, Uggla leads all second baseman with 145 homers since 2006. He also ranks 13th all-time in home runs by a second baseman.
However, lately it has been said that they are internally discussing the possibility of signing their Uggla to a long-term contract.
That is sad, because if Miami was a real baseball town the talk would have Dan Uggla as the man of the moment.
Of course, this is if you are a sports fan, as many people think of Miami as the place taken by the Kardashian trio sisters. It is summer time, and that means it is time to see such beauties as Kim in South Beach.
Most people forget that when Ramirez was selected in 2006 the National League Rookie of the Year, it was Uggla who won the same accolade from The Sporting News and the players association.
Most of South Florida chatter right now concerning October is all about the aforementioned Heat and its opening night in Miami against the Orlando Magic (October 29), or where the Miami Dolphins and the University of Miami Hurricanes will be in the standings around that time.
As part of his homer spree, he became the Marlins franchise home run king,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], passing former Marlin Mike Lowell (143) July 31 against the San Diego Padres.
Manchester United was formed in 1878 by the Carriage and Wagon department of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway depot at Newton Heath as Newton Heath LYR Football Club. The team initially played games against other departments and rail companies, but by 1888 the club had become a founding member of The Combination, a regional football league. However, following the league dissolution after just one season, Newton Heath joined the newly formed Football Alliance, which ran for three seasons before being merged with the Football League. This resulted in the club starting the 1892 to 93 season in the First Division, by which time it had become independent of the rail company and dropped the LYR from its name. After just two seasons, the club was relegated to the Second Division. Christian Petersen Manchester United Football Club is an English professional football club, based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, that plays in the Premier League. Founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, the club changed its name to Manchester United in 1902 and moved to Old Trafford in 1910.
In Miami the talk of the town continues to be its Heat’s "Big Three."
It is understandable it is not the most easiest last name to remember. But no matter how everyone pronounces it Uggla is the man right now.
If anyone had been in another planet of late,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we are talking about the trio of Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh.
As of now, not many people in town care about its team. The reason is a simple one: At the moment, it looks as if the franchise is looking toward the 2011 season and giving up its pursuit of the National League East crown or a wild card berth.
Uggla, 30, also became the fastest second baseman ever to reach 100 homers.
And right now that means that the Marlins need to retain him in their lineup when they do open their new stadium in 2012. Newton Heath initially played on a field on North Road, close to the railway yard. the original capacity was about 12,000, but club officials deemed the facilities inadequate for a club hoping to join The Football League. Some expansion took place in 1887,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and in 1891 Newton Heath used its minimal financial reserves to purchase two grandstands, each able to hold 1,000 spectators. Although attendances were not recorded for many of the earliest matches at North Road, the highest documented attendance was approximately 15,000 for a First Division match against Sunderland on 4 March 1893. A similar attendance was also recorded for a friendly match against Gorton Villa on fifth September 1889.
The should have been All-Star continued his recent home run binge, hitting his eighth in the past 10 games off Philadelphia’ Roy Halladay. It was Uggla's 24th homer of the season.
Uggla already extended his streak to five years, while Philadelphia’ Chase Utley, currently on the disabled list,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], can run his streak to six with nine more dingers this year. Cincinnati’s Brandon Phillips needs six home runs to extend his 20-homer streak to four.
That is kind of unbelievable considering sluggers such as Gary Sheffield,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Derrek Lee and Miguel Cabrera were once Marlins.
Last season Uggla became the only second basemen in history to hit 20-or-more home runs in its first four career campaigns. The other one was Hall of Famer Joe Gordon, who did it in four straight seasons from 1938-41.
So lost in the thoughts of sunshine and basketball are the Florida Marlins.
In the process, Uggla has established himself as a threat to Jeff Kent's mark of nine consecutive 20-homer seasons from 1997-2005, the present major league record for a second baseman. But besides Uggla there are other second baseman making its own run.
