Hanley Ramirez may miss WBC due to sore shoulder
by John Aubin | Wed, Mar 1st 5:39am EST
Hanley Ramirez went 0-for-2 with a walk as Boston's designated hitter Tuesday against the Yankees. Ramirez told reporters Monday that he's dealing with a sore shoulder that might prevent him from participating in the World Baseball Classic, so his presence in the lineup Tuesday was an encouraging sign.
Fantasy Impact:
Ramirez is coming off a great season in 2016 in which he batted .286 with 30 HRs and 111 RBI. He was also able to play 147 games which were the most he played in a season in five years. Expect the Red Sox to be cautious with the first baseman as they need Ramirez healthy and in the middle of the lineup this year.
