The Cleveland Guardians were not on the field Monday, but that did not stop them from tinkering with their roster. Cleveland acquired pitcher Yohan Ramirez from the Seattle Mariners for a player to be named later or cash. The Guardians also transferred James Karinchak to the 60-day injured list.
Yohan Ramirez has not pitched well this season with the Mariners, compiling a 7.56 ERA, 1.560 WHIP, and 10.8 K/9. The previous two seasons have shown much more favorable numbers with a 3.35 ERA, 1.221 WHIP, and 11.4 K/9 in 48.1 innings. Cleveland should be able to tap into what was successful in previous seasons and get Ramirez back on the right track.
