| Manager suggests Dan Uggla is 'locked in' at plate |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (5/8/13) Braves second baseman Dan Uggla's triples Sunday and Monday means it's the most he's had since totaling three in 2007. It also is signals something more significant to manager Fredi Gonzalez.
"When hitters are finding the other way, the opposite field, that means they're swinging it really good," Gonzalez said, per MLB.com. "Lefties to left-center and righties to right-center -- that's when they're really, really locked in."
Uggla is batting .290 (9 for 31) with a .516 slugging percentage in his last eight games. His batting average has gone from .160 to .198 in that span.

Hit Parade for Week 9
Which hitters should you be considering for upcoming Fantasy Week 9? Our Scott White takes a close look at all of the streaks and matchups to help optimize your lineups.
|
| Dan Uggla's .233 batting average in 2011 felt like more than a .233 batting average because of the way he achieved it, rebounding to hit .296 with a .948 OPS in the second half after hitting .185 with a .621 OPS in the first half. Likewise, his .220 batting average in 2012 felt like less than a .220 batting average because from about June 6 to the end of the season -- a span of 99 games -- he was positively worthless in Fantasy, hitting .185 with nine home runs and a .644 OPS. The lack of home runs is especially discouraging. Uggla is no stranger to cold streaks or low batting averages, but 30 home runs were a given for him over the first six years of his career. Seeing him finish with only 19 is almost unfathomable. And because it happened alongside an unprecedented cold streak in his age-32 season, you have to question whether or not reduced bat speed is the culprit. If that's the case, Uggla could be in the early stages of a swift and ugly decline. Or he may have just had a down year. No matter which way you lean, you have to acknowledge he's no longer the safe bet he used to be. Rickie Weeks and Brandon Phillips should be long gone before you make a play for Uggla.
