Lore & Background
Ramírez established himself as an elite hitter during his prime years, with a high career batting average (.289) and a high isolated power (.197). However, he was rated as a poor defensive shortstop, resulting in a move to left field with the Red Sox, where he fared even worse defensively. For the 2016 season, he was transitioned to first base, a move that yielded good results both offensively and defensively. Ramirez's hitting declined from 2017 on, however, as he posted the lowest batting averages and the lowest OPS of his MLB career.
