Erasmo Ramírez Stats

Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Erasmo Ramirez will make the start on Friday against the Los Angeles Angels. This will be just Ramirez's second start of the season, and he last appeared on Aug. 15, although it was only in one inning of relief. Still, the 33-year-old shouldn't be expected to go for more than a handful of innings, making him a poor streaming option in fantasy. In 28 appearances for the Rays and Washington Nationals in 2023, Ramirez has posted a 5.72 ERA (4.28 FIP), 1.58 WHIP, seven walks and only 21 strikeouts over his 39 1/3 innings pitched. In his 12 seasons in the big leagues, Ramirez only has a 6.8 K/9 over 807 1/3 innings.

The Washington Nationals released right-hander Erasmo Ramirez on Thursday. The Nationals had designated Ramirez for assignment the day prior, and now he's free to sign with any team he pleases. The 33-year-old veteran made 23 appearances out of the bullpen in D.C. this year, posting an ugly 6.33 ERA (5.25 FIP), 1.56 WHIP, six walks and 13 strikeouts in 27 innings pitched. The soft-tossing hurler (6.8 career K/9) could latch on with another organization, but he's well off the fantasy radar and may not work his way back to the big leagues again in 2023. Ramirez has a 4.28 career ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 795 major-league innings over 12 seasons.

The Washington Nationals re-signed right-hander Erasmo Ramirez to a one-year deal on Thursday that can reach up to $2 million with incentives. Ramirez will return to D.C. after posting a strong 2.92 ERA (4.05 FIP), a 1.08 WHIP, 61 strikeouts and 14 walks in 86 1/3 innings over 60 appearances (two starts). There's a chance that Ramirez is a candidate to make some starts for Washington next year, but it's more likely that the 32-year-old veteran will continue in a long-relief role for the team next year, limiting his fantasy appeal. In 11 years at the major-league level, Ramirez has posted a 4.21 ERA (4.50 FIP), a 1.22 WHIP, an 18.3 percent strikeout rate and a 6.4 percent walk rate with four saves in 768 frames over 276 outings (94 starts).
