Newsbreakers

December 9, 2009

Less than a week after he was released by the Rays, Ramon Ramirez was claimed by the Red Sox today, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Our View:

This signing isn't expected to have much of an impact on Boston's roster, although it is sure to mix up plenty of journalists, given that the Red Sox now carry two relievers with the exact same name. Be careful with your Ramon Ramirez usage!

December 3, 2009

Ramon Ramirez has been released by the Rays, according to the St. Petersburg Times.

Our View:

He had only been with the team since early November. In 12.1 major league innings in Cincinnati last season, he posted a 3.65 ERA.

November 9, 2009

Cincinnati's Ramon Ramirez has been claimed off waivers by the Tampa Bay Rays, according to Ed Price of AOL Fanhouse.

Our View:

Ramirez posted a 3.65 era in 12.1 innings for the Reds last season. The Rays are looking to remake the bullpen this offseason, and this is a decent first step.

August 31, 2009

Ramon Ramirez has been recalled by the Reds from Triple-A Louisville.

Our View:

Ramirez holds a 2.67 ERA over 57.1 innings this season. He will serve as a long-reliever, and is only worth a look for deeper fantasy leagues.

May 22, 2009

According to the Reds' official Twitter page, the team has optioned Ramon Ramirez to Triple-A Louisville.

Our View:

Ramirez was less than impressive in his first stint in Triple-A this season and he did nothing to warrant keeping him on the big club in his short time with the team. He has no fantasy value, even if he comes back up.

May 19, 2009

Ramon Ramirez has been recalled by the Reds from Triple-A Louisville, according to the Sports Network. The club placed Nick Masset on the 15-day DL as the corresponding move.

Our View:

Ramirez was added for insurance in case Edinson Volquez is unable to make his next start later this week due to back spasms. Ramirez held a rock-solid 2.67 ERA and 1.04 WHIP over 27 innings (four starts) last season, and is worth consideration for deeper NL-only leagues if you need help.

March 24, 2009

Ramon Ramirez has been optioned to Triple-A Louisville by the Reds, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Our View:

Ramirez pitched well in 2008, as he held a 1.04 WHIP over 27 innings, with 21 strikeouts. But the Reds decided it was best to send him to the minors for regular playing time.
