Juan Uribe belted a two-run homer in Tuesday's loss to the Padres.

Uribe drew the start because he was 10-for-26 with two homers lifetime against Clayton Richard, and he rewarded Dodgers manager Don Mattingly by taking Richard deep again. Unfortunately for L.A., it was two of just three runs they scored in the 9-3 loss. Luis Cruz should be back at third base Wednesday.
Apr 9 - 10:16 PM

Juan Uribe will bat fifth Tuesday against the Padres.

No, it wasn't a mistake on the lineup card. Uribe is 10-for-26 with two homers lifetime against Tuesday's starter Clayton Richard, so Dodgers manager Don Mattingly is hoping that he can provide some thump in the middle of the order. Luis Cruz is on the bench Tuesday.
Apr 9 - 3:02 PM

Juan Uribe was scratched from Saturday's game with right hamstring tightness.

It doesn't seem serious for Uribe, who seems to be in line for increased playing time in light of the recent injury to Hanley Ramirez. The 34-year-old utility infielder has a chance to be the Dodgers' Opening Day starter at third base if healthy.
Mar 23 - 10:53 PM

Juan Uribe went 4-for-4 with an RBI double and a run scored in Friday's win over the Royals.

The double was actually the result of a misplay by Jeff Francoeur in right field, but hey, Uribe will take what he can get. He singled in his other three at-bats. The 33-year-old is expected to make the Opening Day roster, but he's unlikely to be fantasy relevant.
Mar 16 - 1:09 AM

Juan Uribe is in the starting lineup Tuesday for the first time since July 22.

Uribe figures to get mixed in at third base more often now that Jerry Hairston, Jr. is on the disabled list with a hip injury. Still, he's unlikely to help much in fantasy leagues. The 33-year-old is batting just .191/.248/.289 with two home runs, 17 RBI and a .538 OPS in 57 games played this year.

Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times writes that Juan Uribe's roster spot with the Dodgers could soon be in jeopardy.

Uribe is hitting just .193 with a .545 OPS in 164 plate appearances this season and has only played once in the past week. Adam Kennedy (groin) is expected to be activated from the disabled list on Friday, so the Dodgers could part ways with him as soon as this week. The 33-year-old is still owed $7 million next season and $1 million in deferred payment in 2014.

Juan Uribe had a huge day in Saturday's win over the Mets, going 2-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, two walks and three runs scored.

Uribe's two-run double in the top of the third snapped a 1-for-38 skid. He later added a two-run homer off R.A. Dickey in the top of the ninth inning. It was his first multi-hit game since June 15 while the four RBI were a season-high.

Juan Uribe grounded into a double play as a pinch-hitter in his return to action Thursday.

Uribe hasn't started since leaving Monday's game with a sprained ankle. He should be fine.

Juan Uribe (ankle) has been scratched from the Dodgers' lineup Tuesday night against the Reds.

Luis Cruz will start at third base. Uribe suffered a mild right ankle sprain in Monday's series-opener and is considered day-to-day. He's batting .200/.259/.280.

Uribe left Monday's game in the sixth inning after tweaking his right ankle. But it was only a minor thing.

Uribe left Monday's game after five innings due to the injury. He is currently considered day-to-day.
Tue, Jul 3, 2012 12:36:00 AM

Juan Uribe left Monday's game against the Reds after five innings for an undisclosed reason.

The Dodgers have yet to announce the cause for his early exit. He went 0-for-1 with a walk before being replaced by Adam Kennedy at third base.
Mon, Jul 2, 2012 11:44:00 PM

Juan Uribe is batting just .161 with a .188 OBP since returning from the disabled list June 11.

"He hasn't looked very good, honestly," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly told reporters after Sunday's loss to the Angels. "For me, there's too much pull. I looked at video of him this morning, he's pulling out of there." Elian Herrera started at third base on Sunday against Anaheim.
Mon, Jun 25, 2012 09:34:00 AM

Juan Uribe doubled home the Dodgers' lone run in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the A's.

Uribe's second-inning two-bagger was his only hit in three trips to the plate. Los Angeles' 33-year-old third baseman is now 5-for-24 (.208) since coming off the disabled list on June 11. For the season, he's hitting a rough .240/.288/.337 with just one home run in 33 games.
