CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Interesting. Seems like that would be 1 too many then to carry on the bench. Maybe Kepp is on the move after all? Uribe would solve that problem of not having a legit backup to Alexei. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 not a bad stopgap, no draft pick required, can be moved midseason assuming he doesn't totally suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 As long as the move doesn't break the bank, go for it. This team isn't going anywhere might as well add some reason to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Now that I think about it, if the Sox sign Uribe, could this mean the end of Beckham? Sox get Uribe, move Kepp to 2B until Semien, Johnson or Sanchez is ready, and Uribe becomes the backup IF for 2B, SS and 3B. Makes sense, especially if the Sox do indeed trade for Headley.

It would definitely be the end of Keppinger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ultimate Champion Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 So we bring back the guy who was known for "jokingly" telling other teammates he would kill them JUST AFTER we sign his old coke slinger buddy from LA??? If this means we're finally going to kill Adam Dunn then I love the move. Hahn's a genius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Two year deal max. Anything more would be disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 It's the return of the Laundry Baby Pimp! (My brother's nickname for Uribe. He once asked my sister-in-law "want to see why Juan Uribe is a pimp?" after he made a cool play, to which she replied "did you just say Laundry Baby Pimp?"

hi8is Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 The timing of this release is suspicious. Couple that news with our reported interest in Headley... and I see Hanh making a leverage play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) No to Juan Sox cannot have a lineup with Uribe and Dayan in it. They could both go 2 weeks without a hit multiple times. Edited December 9, 2013 by Soxfest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 As I said elsewhere early in the offseason, he makes a lot of sense for us, but only if Keppinger is gone. He makes a little sense if, maybe, Beckham is gone. Somebody has to be gone for him to fit on the roster as it is, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My reminds me of how my buddy and I always called Uribe "Drink" as his nickname. We were sitting in the car going to a Sox game, this was 2006 maybe, and we were joking around about how Uribe can't speak English and I had joked that in the program at the stadium when they asked him what his favorite food is, he would probably answer "Drink". We thought it was hilarious at the time, so now we call him Drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 QUOTE (DirtySox @ Dec 9, 2013 -> 12:54 AM) Stop-gappish trade chip signing? That's exactly what I want him for. Sign him to a 1 year deal, 2 years MAX, and then trade him at the deadline if he repeats his very good 2013 season. If we aren't making a big play for winning next year, then I want this team full of veteran trade-chips on short 1-2 year deals that we can move at the deadline for a couple mid-prospects each.

That doesnt mean he is going to get it...he would probably have resigned with the Dodgers already if that is what they were offering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
