After giving Hanley Ramirez a six-year, $70 million extension, the Marlins announced thatre they we done handing out multi-year deals ... which makes you wonder what Dan Uggla has to do to catch their attention. After hitting 27 and 31 home runs his first two years in the league, Uggla is currently on pace for 50 dingers this season, hitting .316 in the process.

Even if he falls off his torrid pace, he's almost certainly a lock to join Alfonso Soriano, Jeff Kent and Roger Hornsby as the only second basemen to hit at least 27 home runs in three or more seasons. Needless to say, that's pretty elite company. So why does Ramirez get all the long-term love while Uggla lives from year to year?

I like this guy, like ive mentioned before I went to school with him so ive followed him on his way to the majors, he definitley deserves a a long term contract, whether the marlins will lock him up is another story..

Yeah, they should lock him up. Maybe it's a matter of not having the money to invest in a long-term deal, but he definitely has earned one.
