CLEVELAND, Ohio – What are the Indians going to do at third base before Monday's trade deadline? Juan Uribe isn't hitting and he hasn't been hitting for a while.
Uribe, who didn't play in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Nationals, is hitting .119 (5-for-42) in July. That was after he hit .188 (12-for-64) in June.
In Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Nationals, Uribe went 0-for-3 and was charged with two errors. An official scoring change before the start of Wednesday's game changed one of those errors to a hit for Daniel Murphy in the first inning.
