Hopefully the last URBINA thread...updated info...

calm down kiddies. I love the Urbina news. I just picked him up off the waiver wire and actually dropped Wickman for the pick up.

Some other fool just dropped him and picked up Dejean instead. I would love to see the guy close. I don't think anyone is going to pay someone that much to have another set up man. He will be closing games by the end of April.

If you honestly think Urbina will be a set-up man, you're delusional.

Wherever he goes, the 30-year-old Urbina has said he wants to close

He's held out this long, I don't think he's gonna except a role he doesn't want. I doubt he's gonna make an exception to play for a non-contender, but that's just my opinion.

Bump from an Urbina owner (26th round).

I agree 100%. The guy was talking to Japanese teams for crying out loud because he felt THAT firmly that he was worth more than what MLB was offering and he wanted to close that bad! THe only thing I can see out of Cleveland signing Urbina is hoping that he does well- and than trading either him or Riske for starting pitching or a decent infielder once one of them heats up.
