Backup infielder Juan Uribe, who had been battling a chest injury, has been cleared to return to the Mets, according to Marc Carig of Newsday.
I repeat, Juan Uribe has made the #WorldSeries roster ahead of Matt Reynolds. NO MORE FOOBALL.

Uribe replaces Matt Reynolds, who did not appear since being added to the Mets’ roster to replace the injured Ruben Tejada. Uribe will add a valuable pinch hitter late in games, a position Michael Cuddyer has failed miserably at in this post-season, and it could affect the decision making of Royals manager Ned Yost.
Welcome back Juan. It’s time to play some baseball.
