I dunno, I expect it to go the same as Josh Johnson's extension last year. The most likely reason I see negotiations falling apart is if Uggla's camp is adamant on 5 or more guaranteed years, since the Marlins already have an internal 2B replacement in Coghlan and Uggla's production falling off around age 34/35 is a legit concern. If he's willing to settle for say, 4 years and around 45 million with a team option on the 5th year, it probably gets done.
If not, then hey, Runzler + another pitching prospect is appealing.

I want to know what the other Rich thinks.
When we traded for Lee in the middle of the season I knew it was just for the rest of the year and stated such here so I'm not surprised or disappointed.
He helped the Rangers get to their first World Series and that was nice for us fans but there was something tainted about it.....having to pay for a "hired gun" to help get there.....and I stated such here.
The Giants proved that you can win a Championship with hard play and hustle and not necessarily the biggest payroll....and as a baseball fan that is a good thing.
I find it amusing that people who are usually anti-Corporate/Big Money are able to ignore it and even support it when it comes to their sports teams.

HELLO ADRIAN GONZALEZ!Horseleech said:So, is this a case of the Phillies 'buying' a World Series?
Dude took less money to play in Philly than what was offered by the Yankees and Rangers. I applaud him. Phillies just stomped New York's nuts -- they wont recover.
Obviously way too early but would love to see Phillies and the BoSox in the big one.
