Saga Of Uribe's Wrist

Said to be the cause of original wrist injury

Most of us have been aware and, in many cases, thankful, that Juan "Urine" Uribe has been struggling.....

.......with a wrist injury. Latest is that the team is "remaining cautious."

HOUSTON -- Dodgers third baseman Juan Uribe did not start his third consecutive game Friday night, the last two because of a mildly inflamed left wrist.

Jerry Hairston Jr., the defensive star of Thursday's win at Milwaukee, started again at third base.

Uribe did hit in the cage and take batting practice before Friday's game at Houston. He said he was available to pinch hit, if needed. [...]

"We're going to see Juan this series. The plan right now is to start him Sunday. If the situation arises [before], we'll use him like anybody else off the bench."

I say we put Chelsea Football Club's captain, John Terry, on the case.
