Jose Ramirez

Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez tested his injured shoulder on Monday after departing Sunday's Cactus League game early and is feeling much better.

Fantasy Impact

There aren't any plans for imaging on Ramirez's shoulder, with skipper Stephen Vogt saying "he's feeling much, much better today, so we're going to reassess him day by day. He should be just fine in a few days." The Guardians can ill afford to lose Ramirez for any amount of time as the cornerstone of a mediocre offense in Cleveland.

Jose Ramirez (shoulder) left in the fourth inning of Cleveland's spring training game against the Athletics with left shoulder inflammation according to Guardians' manager, Stephen Vogt. Ramirez is considered day-to-day for now.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez apparently suffered the ailment sliding into third base during the second inning of Sunday's game. He remained in the game before he was pinch hit for by Carter Kieboom in the fourth. Ramirez has played 13 seasons, all with Cleveland, and could be destined for Cooperstown when all is said and done. He's a seven-time All-Star and has finished in the top five in AL MVP voting six times. It's entirely possible that this is a minor hiccup and he'll return in a couple of days. However, given what Ramirez means to the Guardians, the organization will use extreme caution before returning him to game action. Expect an update on Ramirez in the next day or two.

Jose Ramirez and the Cleveland Guardians have agreed to a 7-year, $175 million contract extension.
