Pick 25

[HahnSolo]

For the World Series, does anyone think we'll see a roster adjustment anywhere?

I'm guessing no*, unless Uribe makes a miraculous recovery (maybe Murphy should visit him and place his hand on the injury to make it all better?). With the DH it might be nice to have Uribe if healthy.

* also assuming Cespedes is healthy.

I think they might make a bullpen swapout after the ALCS plays out, perhaps depending on the makeup of the opponent. The Jays' three biggest bats (by far) are all right-handed, so the need for Gilmartin is perhaps lessened.

Any word yet about Uribe being able to play?

Took batting and fielding practice before Game 2. So I'd expect him to be on the WS roster barring a setback.

Sorry about that, Matt Reynolds.

[Edgy MD]

I'm not sure Reynolds would be the victim of such a comeuppance. They Mets still need a backup shortstop and it's an open question whether Johnson or Uribe qualifies to Terry's satisfaction.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I was thinking the same thing. I see that Uribe has played quite a bit of shortstop during his career, but I don't know what his current capabilities are. Uribe may bump Nieuwenhuis instead of Reynolds.

Mike Puma, New York Post wrote: Juan Uribe, who was not on the Mets roster for either of the first two rounds of the playoffs due to a chest injury, took grounders and is scheduled to take batting practice Saturday. Still, manager Terry Collins seemed reluctant to place the 36-year-old on the 25-man roster for the World Series following a nearly month-long layoff.
