Uribe is great with the glove, but he's aging, out of shape and due for a dramatic decline offensive to his career mean.
You've got a guy 10 years younger who's progressing in both facets of the game making a fraction of what Uribe does.
I'm not sure I agree with that. He was awful at the plate in the 2nd half and awful defensively all season (2nd to last defensive 3B in all of MLB).
I like Lonnie and still think he can help this team. I'm just not comfortable going into 2015 with him being the only viable option at 3B. I think Urshela will be the guy long-term at 3B, but he's obviously not ready at this point.
