Line of the Day: Hanley Ramirez
2008-06-08 23:53:00 Four days after having his second two-homer outing of the season, Hanley went yard twice this afternoon for his third dual-dinger day. (Did I just type "dual-dinger day"? What's wrong with me?) That means 43 percent of his home runs in '08 have come on days when he's hit multiple home runs ... or something. I should shut up now.Hanley Ramirez: 3-for-5, 2 runs, 2 HR, 4 RBI

Youkilis-Ramirez tiff called 'no big deal'
2008-06-06 14:36:00 Although the most explosive portion of fight night at Fenway Park occurred during the bottom of the second inning, after James Shields hit Coco Crisp with a pitch, the undercard was no less intriguing. Before the start of the fifth inning, there was an issue in the Red Sox dugout. And it was caught on camera, replayed on television. Kevin Youkilis and Manny Ramírez, who spent the offseason training together in Arizona, scuffled briefly before being separated. There was shouting, and Ramírez was trying to get at Youkilis while being restrained by trainer Paul Lessard and bench coach Brad Mills. They were pulled apart, and Ramírez was escorted into the tunnel that connects the dugout and the clubhouse. But there were a lot of tight lips in the clubhouse once the game was over. Nobody wanted to reveal the reason for the altercation.Ramírez was a bit tardy getting to the bench-clearing brawl, not entering the fray until the bullpen residents had reached ...

Ramirez remains DH in Boston lineup
2008-06-05 13:28:00 The numbers are gone from the light tower in left field. No tangible reminder of his quest for 500 home runs. So, it should be easy for Manny Ramírez. Right? But since he has a right hamstring that has been bothering him for two weeks, it isn't quite that simple. So for the fourth straight game last night, since David Ortiz injured his left wrist Saturday against the Orioles, Ramírez was the Red Sox' designated hitter. Not that he's putting additional pressure on himself to produce like two stars. "I've just got to be myself," said Ramírez, who extended his hitting streak to 10 games with a third-inning RBI single in the Sox' 5-1 win over the Rays. "Now that I got the 500 out of the way, I'm just going to have fun. What I get from now on is like extra. What is there for me to do? Steal bases now? Five hundred bases? Six hundred bases?"Not with that balky hamstring, certainly. Ramírez was examined yesterday, and manager Terry Francona said the injury...

Much like Hillary, I'm still not ready to accept defeat (hey, Jose has him in two categories so far this year -- stolen bags and RBI), but thanks to another so-far-stellar season from Hanley, I may be better served by giving this particular opinion a rest for a while.Hanley Ramirez: 2-for-3, 3 runs, 2 HR, 3 RBI, 1 SB

What's with those Florida Teams? [Hanley Ramirez, Dan Uggla]
2008-05-30 11:00:00 Oh, those first place Florida Teams! The Florida Marlins and Tampa Bay Rays are both having stellar seasons, and leading their respective divisions. How is it that the teams from down South can dominate their northern rivals?The first key to Florida's success is Hanley Ramirez, who belonged in conversations with Chase Utley in April but has actually faded in May. Still, project his numbers over a whole season and you've got outstanding five-category production. The good news about Ramirez is that his walk rate is up, but the bad news is that he's striking out 25% of the time and his slugging percentage is way down (even though he's still hitting homers, he's barely hitting any doubles). His May slump could potentially - hopefully - be attributed to manager Fredi Gonzalez moving him into the third spot. However, he was moved back to leadoff last week, and so far hasn't set the world on fire (.690 OPS). Still, Ramirez is one of the game's great hitters, and there's no doubt he...

Odds And Ends: Ramirez, Tavarez, Brewslow, Pena
2008-05-24 12:18:00 Thankfully, the calendar will soon flip to June, and trade rumors will start to heat up. To tide you over until then, here are a few notes from around the league. Sean McAdam wonders if Manny Ramirez's current slump will affect the team's decision to exercise his $20MM option for 2009. Manny sounded rather confident last month that the team would pick it up. And while it's nearly a given that he'll recover from this month, the Red Sox could read it as a sign of decline. Still, the chances of the option being picked up are still high. A few days after accepting an assignment to AAA Pawtucket, Julian Tavarez has instead opted for free agency. Couple of transaction notes. Braves C Brayan Pena has been activated from the DL, and immediately designated for assignment. Indians reliever Craig Breslow was also DFA.

Slumping Hanley Ramirez gets day off
2008-05-22 19:10:00 Florida Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez is willing to do whatever it takes to snap Hanley Ramirez out of his slump. Ramirez didn't ask for it, but Gonzalez gave him the day off Wednesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks. ''He's the manager. There's nothing I can do about it,'' Ramirez said. 'It gives me a chance to relax, watch the game and cheer for the guys,'' he said, tongue in cheek. ``He just said he was going to give me a day off. . . . I will go to the cage, take some [extra] batting practice and try to fix what I've been doing bad.''Ramirez's batting average has dropped 34 points in his past 10 games. He has only one hit in his past 15 at-bats and has struck out 10 times during that span. Gonzalez said everything is just going wrong for Ramirez, and that he takes balls that are called strikes and swings at pitches that are balls.

Hanley Ramirez Contract Details
2008-05-17 00:45:00 Hanley Ramirez's six-year, $70MM deal will be officially announced Saturday. MLB.com's Joe Frisaro has the details of the contract. Basically the deal pays $23.5MM for Ramirez's three arbitration years and $46.5MM for his first three years of free agency. It's also been confirmed that the deal lacks no-trade provisions. I know we always label these young-player long-term deals as team-friendly. But this one takes the cake. That's not a knock on Ramirez - if I had his talents I'd certainly exchange maximum dollars for immediate security. How about you?
