Marlins Likely To Keep Uggla

By Zachary Links | July 18, 2010 at 11:20am CDT

There are indications that the Marlins are not leaning toward trading Dan Uggla, according to MLB.com's Joe Frisaro.  Florida may even sign the second baseman for 2011, his final season of arbitration.  The club has yet to determine if they will seek a long-term contract in the offseason, however.

The Rockies have been interested in Uggla for quite some time and their interest has been ramped up since Troy Tulowitzki broke his wrist in mid-June.  While it seems like the Fish will hang on to their two-time All-Star, Frisaro notes that the club has a policy of listening to possible offers on just about anyone on their team.

As we've heard in recent weeks, there are other members of the Marlins who are trade candidates.  Cody Ross could change uniforms before the deadline and the Braves seem to be one of the most interested clubs out there.  Third baseman Jorge Cantu could be moved as he may be too rich for the Marlins' blood when he hits free agency this winter.  Even veteran Wes Helms has heard his name in trade talks as the Yankees appear to be interested.

    Uggla has no business playing on the middle infield. Guy has no range.

      Actually his UZR/150 for his entire career is -3.3 and so far this year it is 1.7. THht kinds of says he is only slightly below average defensively and his bat is way above average for a 2B.

          I prefer UZR as it is measured by trained observer going over tape in a
          prescribed manner. The whole ‘eyes’ thing does not fill me with confidence.

    Uggla is going to waste the best years of his career on a going no where club. He should demand a trade and get the heck out of that sink hole.The Marlins remind me of the Jacksonville Jags (perpetually a day late and a dollar short)

      They’ve been trying to trade him for 3 years now, I don’t think he has to demand anything….
