According to Jerry Crasnick of ESPN.com, the Braves have acquired Dan Uggla from the Marlins for Omar Infante and Mike Dunn.

It's done. That's right, the Marlins have sold off Uggla for a utility player and an unproven left-handed reliever with shoddy control. It's not clear where all the pieces will fit in Atlanta, but they'd be crazy to pass up this deal. The Marlins have done more harm than good to their franchise and fanbase over the past few days.

Pretty cheap... I'm sure the Marlins could have fetched way more for his services. Though I'm not a fan of Uggla, it was a very good move that improves our lineup a great deal.
