Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Blasts three homers in win
Rotowire
Ramirez went 3-for-4 with a walk, three home runs and four RBI in Friday's 8-6 win against the Angels.
The seven-time All-Star entered the contest with one run scored and two RBI through five games this season, but he padded those totals Friday by homering in the first, fifth and ninth innings. It's the second three-homer game of Ramirez's career and his 26th multi-homer performance, with the latter mark tying Cleveland's franchise record, per Sarah Langs of MLB.com. The power display boosted his season slash line to .381/.440/1.048 in 25 plate appearances.

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Belts homer in return
Rotowire
Ramirez went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Monday's 7-2 loss to San Diego.
Ramirez was held out of Sunday's matchup against Kansas City due to a right wrist sprain, but he was back in action Monday after missing just one game. The issue didn't seem to have any impact on his swing, as the star third baseman notched his first two extra-base hits of the season -- a first-inning solo homer and a third-inning double. Ramirez went 0-for-6 with a walk over his first two games entering Monday.

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Imaging negative, still day-to-day
Rotowire
Manager Stephen Vogt said imaging on Ramirez's right wrist came back negative, and the third baseman could be available as a pinch hitter Sunday against the Royals, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
The 32-year-old suffered a right wrist sprain on a slide while attempting to steal a base Saturday, but he's avoided a serious injury and may be available off the bench Sunday. Ramirez could return to the lineup as early as Monday in San Diego, though he could miss another day or two, with Vogt noting that the Guardians "want to be super cautious" so that the star third baseman's injury "doesn't turn into something that's going to linger."

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Out of Sunday's lineup
Rotowire
Ramiriez (wrist) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
The third baseman suffered a sprained right wrist on a stolen-base attempt during the third inning Saturday, so it's not a surprise he'll be out of the starting nine for at least one game. Ramirez is undergoing additional testing and should be considered day-to-day in the meantime. Gabriel Arias will shift to the hot corner while Daniel Schneemann starts at second base in the series finale at Kansas City.

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Considered day-to-day
Rotowire
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt told reporters after Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Royals that Ramirez is currently considered day-to-day due to a wrist sprain, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Ramirez rolled his right wrist on a slide during a stolen base attempt in the third inning Saturday, but he managed to stay in the game until the sixth. The third baseman will undergo further testing Sunday morning to determine the severity of the injury and could be held out of the series finale, though it sounds like he will push to play. Daniel Schneemann figures to step in at the hot corner if Ramirez misses time.

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Sprains wrist Saturday
Rotowire
Ramirez was removed from Saturday's game against the Royals due to a sprained right wrist, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Ramirez looked to be bothered by his hand/wrist after jamming it into the ground during a stolen base attempt in the third inning, but he managed to stay in the game for a bit longer until his removal in the sixth. The Guardians haven't provided any details regarding the severity of the six-time All-Star's injury, but a sprained wrist typically leads to a stint on the injured list more often than not. Daniel Schneemann is most likely to benefit from extra playing time if Ramirez lands on the IL.
Ramirez batted second and went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Friday's spring game against the Mariners.
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Friday he's leaning toward having Ramirez hit second in the 2025 regular season. He's mostly batted third during his career, but Ramirez has hit second in six of 11 Cactus League starts. He's batting .389 (7-for-18) out of the second spot in the order this spring compared to .154 (2-for-13) when batting third.

Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Might hit second
Rotowire
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt indicated Friday that he's leaning toward batting Ramirez second this season, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
Ramirez has spent the overwhelming majority of his career batting third, including in 2024 when 152 of his 158 starts were from the three hole. However, Vogt likes the idea of Ramirez hitting second, as it offers his best hitter more plate appearances and more RBI opportunities. It's not yet clear who would bat third for the Guardians in that scenario, but Kyle Manzardo, Carlos Santana and Lane Thomas have all been used in that spot of late during spring training.
