Guardians 3B José Ramírez leaves game with sore shoulder, to be evaluated Monday
GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) — Cleveland Guardians third baseman José Ramírez left Sunday’s spring training game against the Athletics with a sore left shoulder after jamming it sliding into third base, manager Stephen Vogt said.
Vogt said Ramírez would be reevaluated on Monday.
Ramírez was 1 for 2 in the game, which Cleveland won 12-6. He doubled in the second inning, then stole third base. Carter Kieboom pinch-hit for him in the fourth.
A seven-time All-Star who has played his entire 13-year career in Cleveland, Ramírez finished third in the AL MVP voting last season after batting .283 with 30 homers and 85 RBIs. He is a lifetime .279 hitter with 285 home runs and 949 RBIs.
Ramírez, 33, signed a seven-year, $175 million contract this offseason – the largest in franchise history.
