Dan Uggla went 3-for-4 with a walk and a double in Wednesday's 10-inning win against the Pirates. The teams had so much fun playing 19 innings last night that they decided to go into extra frames again. Forget for one second that Uggla is batting just .205. He is now riding a career-best hitting steak of 18 games, watching his average rise all the way from .173 in that time. Despite a horrific start to the season, he has 18 homers and 41 RBI. We expect him to continue to rake. If you have a sucker in your league still willing to give him away, take advantage of the opportunity.

Dan Uggla (calf) was 1-for-3 with a run scored in his return to the starting lineup Saturday.

His second inning single extended his career-best hitting steak to 14 games. Good luck buying low now.

Dan Uggla (calf) is back in the lineup Saturday. Uggla tested out the calf with some running before Saturday's game and pronounced himself good to go.

Uggla is batting just .195 on the year but has 18 homers and 40 RBI.

Dan Uggla (calf) hopes to return to the Braves' lineup Saturday. Uggla is out of the starting lineup for the second straight day Friday, but was able to hit off a tee and take batting practice on the field.

Dan Uggla (calf) is not in Thursday's lineup against the Rockies. Uggla left Wednesday's game after straining his left calf, but he hopes to return to the lineup as soon as Friday. Brooks Conrad will make the start at second base Thursday and bat seventh against right-hander Jhoulys Chacin.

Dan Uggla hit a pair of home runs in Tuesday's loss against the Rockies. Forget for a moment that he's still hitting just .192 on the year. Uggla is riding an 11-game hitting streak in which he's hit .341. He has an .850 OPS in 52 July at-bats, collecting seven extra-base hits this month.

Dan Uggla slugged a solo homer in Saturday's extra-inning win over the Phillies. It was his 15th home run of the season and his third in the last five games. While he's still batting just .185 on the year, he has registered a hit in five straight. Things are finally looking up.

Dan Uggla went 1-for-2 with a homer, two runs scored, an RBI and a walk Tuesday against the Mariners. We've been looking for signs of life from Uggla all season, but Tuesday's game comes off a pair of contests where he was 0-for-8. This guy probably belongs in Triple-A and he's now batting .177/.247/.341 on the year. At least he has five homers and 12 RBI in June, probably his best month thus far, despite the fact that his average is below .200.
