Ex-Marlins Dan Uggla and Brad Penny are still playing -- in Kansas!

Ever wonder what Dan Uggla is up to these days? Or Brad Penny? Or even Heath Bell?

The former Marlins have been out of professional baseball for a few years. But they haven’t hung up their spikes.

Uggla, Penny and Bell are members of the Kansas Stars, a collection of former major-leaguers taking part in the National Baseball Congress World Series in Wichita, Kansas.

Josh Beckett and Roger Clemens played for the Stars last year.

This year’s roster includes such names as Chipper Jones, Roy Oswalt, Roy Halladay, Jonny Gomes, Jake Peavy, Ben Sheets and Tim Hudson.

"I don’t think anybody’s prepared the way you should be," Penny said. "But it’s fun to see. It’s like a week’s vacation, really."
