Jose Ramirez

Jose Ramirez turned in another stellar season in 2023, hitting 24 home runs and stealing 28 bases while slashing .282/.356/.475. His other counting stats took a hit due to a subpar lineup around him. He only knocked in 80 and scored 87 across 156 games. Ramirez will be in his age-31 season, typically a time when stolen bases begin to slow down, but his superb batting skills will continue to have high fantasy value. If Cleveland does not improve the lineup around him, he is a first-round talent in a later-round situation that will leave fantasy managers wanting more.

Jose Ramirez powers up, Guardians fall short

Jose Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, and three RBI in the Guardians' 4-3 loss to the Astros.

Fantasy Impact

Ramirez's performance was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing game for Cleveland, as his power display contributed significantly to the team's offensive output. With this game, Ramirez continues to solidify his status as a top-tier fantasy option. His consistent power numbers, coupled with a solid batting average and impressive speed on the bases, make him a valuable asset in all fantasy formats. As the season winds down, Ramirez's ability to contribute across multiple categories should keep him high on fantasy players' radars.
