Uribe struck out the side during a perfect inning of relief Tuesday in Team Dominican Republic's 12-4 exhibition win over the Tigers.
In his final tune-up outing before the World Baseball Classic, Uribe already looked to be in peak form coming off his breakout 2025 campaign. He pumped in 11 of his 19 pitches for strikes, retiring all of Zach McKinstry, Thayron Liranzo and Jake Rogers on swings and misses while hitting 100.7 miles per hour with his sinker. Uribe looks poised to open the season in a closer committee with Trevor Megill, but given Megill's durability concerns as well as Uribe's exceptional skills, it wouldn't be surprising if Uribe ultimately emerges as Milwaukee's preferred endgame option.
Brewers' Abner Uribe: Converts two-inning save in Game 5
Rotowire
Uribe notched a save Saturday against the Cubs in Game 5 of the NLDS, walking one batter and allowing no hits over two scoreless innings.
Uribe entered in the eighth inning with the Brewers holding a 3-1 lead. He walked the second batter he faced but didn't allow any other Chicago baserunners as he finished off the win and Milwaukee's first postseason series victory since 2018. This was Uribe's second appearance of the NLDS, and altogether he pitched three scoreless and hitless frames while posting a 3:1 K:BB. The right-hander should again have a critical high-leverage role for the Brewers in the NLCS against the Dodgers.

Brewers' Abner Uribe: Collects seventh save
Rotowire
Uribe pitched a clean inning with no strikeouts to pick up the save in Sunday's 4-2 victory over the Reds.
The Milwaukee flamethrower required only eight pitches, five of which were strikes, to secure his team's 97th win. Even with Trevor Megill (elbow) being activated earlier in the day, Uribe was called upon for this save because Megill handled the fourth inning and picked up the win. Uribe closes out his regular season with a 1.67 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 90:27 K:BB across 75.1 total innings.

Brewers' Abner Uribe: Notches sixth save
Rotowire
Uribe earned the save in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Padres, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.
Uribe has been sharp since taking over as Milwaukee's primary closer in Trevor Megill's (elbow) absence. Uribe has gone seven innings without allowing an earned run, allowing just four hits and one walk while striking out 10 in that span. Overall, the right-hander has converted six of eight save chances this season while posting a sparkling 1.70 ERA with a 1.05 WHIP and 90 strikeouts across 74.1 innings.
Uribe (3-2) came away with the win in Saturday's extra-inning game against the Cardinals, allowing one unearned run on a walk and a hit-by-pitch in one inning. He did not record a strikeout.
Uribe was brought in for the 10th to keep the game tied at 7-7, but he proceeded to load the bases after hitting Victor Scott with a pitch and walking Brendan Donovan. Uribe was able to limit the damage to one run after Ivan Herrera grounded out into a double play to bring home Jordan Walker, and the right-hander was credited with the win after the Brewers scored two runs in the bottom of the frame. Uribe has yielded just four runs (two earned) across his last 23 innings since the All-Star break and sports a 1.82 ERA and 1.08 WHIP across 69.1 innings this season. He should continue to operate as Milwaukee's primary closer until Trevor Megill (elbow) can return from the IL.
Uribe worked a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his fifth save of the season in a 5-2 win over the Pirates.
The right-hander got three groundball outs on an efficient eight pitches (six strikes). Uribe has had no issues stepping into the closer role for Milwaukee, posting a 3.00 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 4:2 K:BB in six innings and converting all three of his save chances since Trevor Megill (elbow) landed on the IL. Megill could be back by the middle of September, but Uribe should have a firm grip on the ninth-inning job until then.
Uribe gave up a hit and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning Saturday to record his fourth save of the season in a 4-1 win over the Blue Jays.
The Brewers broke open a 1-1 tie in the top of the ninth, and Uribe closed things out in the bottom of the frame on 13 pitches (seven strikes). The right-hander has converted two straight save chances since Trevor Megill (elbow) landed on the IL, but with Milwaukee's regular closer expressing optimism that he'll be able to return when first eligible Sept. 9, Uribe's stint as the team's top save option may not last too long. He's been outstanding in any role, not allowing an earned run in 19 innings since the All-Star break with a 0.95 WHIP and 19:7 K:BB.
