We’ll use this post to track the day’s minor moves:
- The Athletics have outrighted right-hander Carlos Ramirez, who cleared waivers after being designated for assignment recently. Ramirez, 27, has allowed just eight earned runs on nine hits in his 25 MLB innings over the past two years. Of course, he also dished out nine free passes to go with only five strikeouts in 8 1/3 frames this season. Ramirez has spent most of his time of late in the upper minors. At Triple-A this year, in 32 1/3 innings with the A’s and Blue Jays organizations, Ramirez has worked to a 5.01 ERA with 9.2 K/9 against 5.6 BB/9.
Interesting case. He was formerly an outfielder

I’m surprised nobody picked him up off of waivers
Good. I think Carlos Ramirez has lots of talent, it just hasn’t happened yet…

Wild thing, you make my heart sing…
The A’s organization has got it together this season. They replace poor performers with other team’s discards and they perform like stars.
