Aramis Ramirez

Ramirez hit a solo home run in the first inning of the Pirates 9-3 win over the Rockies on Monday. He also drove in a run in the 9th inning on a single up the middle.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez continues to be a run producer in the middle of the Pirates lineup and will now be an everyday player due to the injury to Jung-Ho Kang. He should be owned as a corner infielder and is a good asset for the stretch run of the season.

Ramirez recorded two hits and an RBI in the Pirates 4-3 win over the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez has now recorded at least one RBI in two straight games. Still, he has just four RBI in his past 10 games. With the season ending injury to Jung-Ho Kang, Ramirez should get plenty of opportunity to produce in what is the championship week for many.

Ramirez got the start at third base and recorded two hits and a run scored.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez scored the only run of the night for the Pirates and was also the only Pirate to record multiple hits. Ramirez's production has fallen of late after a very productive streak. It may be time to see what other options are available at third base during the playoffs, where very contribution is magnified.

Both of those hits were doubles for Ramirez, who also drove in two runs on the night. He also scored one run.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez snapped a two game hitless streak with this performance. He has been very good since joining the Pirates and when he is in the lineup, he is a solid starting option at third base.

Ramirez got the start at third base for the first time in two games and managed two hits. One of those hits was his 16th home run of the season which came in the 8th inning of the Pirates 7-1 win.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez continues to play well but the Pirates infield remains crowded. He is a great asset in daily lineup change leagues but is tough to trust in weekly leagues due to the uncertain playing time he will receive. The home run was Ramirez's fourth in his past ten games.
