== Bio ==

* Born January 21, [[1959]] in San Cristobal, Dominican Republic
* Signed by the [[New York Yankees]] as an amateur free agent in [[1977]]
* Played in the Big Leagues from [[1984]] to [[1993]]
* Traded by the [[St. Louis (NES)|St. Louis Cardinals]] with David Green, Dave LaPoint, and Gary Rajsich to the [[San Francisco Giants]] for [[Jack Clark]].

== Uribe in RBI ==

It's pretty simple, Jose Uribe should never see an at-bat for your team. His 747 power rating is simply awful, one of the lowest in the game. Couple that with a pathetic leadoff speed of 128 (8 points behind teammate [[Chili Davis]] and you have the worst leadoff hitter not named [[Randolph]]. Being a lefty also doesn't help in this case, as his low speed nullifies any chance of a [[Pettis (Term)]]. All in all, Uribe is a total waste of space and one of the worst overall players in RBI.

Harry Spilman typically gets the nod for replacing Uribe, but any old sub will do. [[Mike Aldrete]] is usually the other guy who is a most used as a sub - but since all 4 guys have better power numbers, you can take your pick.

== [[Hall of Shame]] Entries ==

* Jose was also humorously the "Player to Really be Named Later". Early in his career, he was delivered as "the player to be named later" in a trade between the Giants and the Cardinals. Between the time of the initial trade and his delivery, he changed his name from Jose Uribe Gonzalez (Gonzalez is his mother's name) to just Jose Uribe (Uribe is his father's name) in order to minimize confusion with the more common name of Gonzalez. Thus he really was "named later". Thanks to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Uribe the wikipedia] for this one...
