J.C. Ramirez To Make At Least One More Rehab Start
5 years agoLos Angeles Angels starting pitcher J.C. Ramirez (elbow) will make at least one more rehab start for Triple-A Salt Lake, according to manager Brad Ausmus. Ramirez is working his way back from Tommy John surgery and has a rough 7.91 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 4.9 K/9 in his eight rehab starts to date. Most importantly, though, is that he hasn't had any setbacks, and Ramirez should be an option for the Halos rotation very soon at the big league level. The 30-year-old had a 4.15 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 24 starts and three relief appearances in his last full season in 2017. He will have some streaming appeal in AL-only leagues, but his lack of strikeouts keeps his upside low.
