You know, I was thinking that the former Crab Tyler Colvin had the worst
card in the set this year.  But Uggla's......for a
"regular/starter"....that's a cute card (if by cute I mean damn aggravating
when it actually hits)!  That card just SCREAMS Sand Crab! LOL (especially
with a J- defense!).

Hey, I had Colvin a year or two back where he was 0/0/0 vs LHP.  And I
PLAYED him vs lefties!!

Man I can't wait to start this season! :)
