It's a day late, but it's huge news.
We might have to eat 5 million this season and 14 million next season, but it was time to just cut out losses. It was clear that Uggla was never going to be a benefit to the team. He had lost his bat and never had a glove. There was no way we were going to trade him. And apparently he started to be a distraction in the club house.
He had to go.
Now we can go forward with a true 25 man roster instead of basically playing 24 handed. Pastornicky and Gosselin are both solid bench players, and Pastornicky has some versatility being able to play SS and OF along with 2B.
Now lets go out and get some bull pen help. Kimbrel and Shae Simmons can't do it all by themselves at the end of games.
