Thank you.



I post on other forums, and I like to share the nuggets of info that I find here. But they frown upon link-less rumors.

"Sudden"

Uggla has hit for power ever since he got drafted, amassing a .443 slg% during his 3-year minor league career, also hitting 64 homers, for an average of 21.3 homers per year in the minors, he's always had power, he simply came into his own or fine-tuned his mechanics after reaching the Majors.

Fair enough, I didn't know that much about him to be honest.

The thing is, he fits the mold of "small guy who shouldn't hit for power", just like Petey, and that goes to show you, power is not all about size, just ask Jose Reyes, Hanley Ramirez and Jimmy Rollins.

Sorry JE, I thought I linked it. I didn't look back in until now, but D found the link.


I don't use MLBtraderumors itself as a credible source(even though it has gotten better over the years), but it's a great place to go to see alot of the better sources(ESPN,Fox,SI,rotoworld, ect) all in one place.

:lol: Uggla's arms are the size of Pedroia's legs.





This is true. I guess I was just being overly suspicious.

There's a 20-pound difference between Pedroia and Uggla, so i fail to see how that is possible.

Uggla's 200 and Petey's 180, but Pedroia is smaller.

It was my attempt at a joke. Uggla is known to have "Popeye" arms.

[Dipre]

That's because of his huge forearms, sir, be specific.

Also I doubt reported weight is the actual weight. Same with height. For example, isn't Miguel Cabrera listed at 240???

•Melky Cabrera: $1.7MM. Yankees: $1.2MM. Diff: $500K. UPDATE: signed.

Optimist is my new favorite member of this board, because that picture gave me a hysterical attack of the lolz.

It took me a while to properly enjoy all the facets of that picture.
