Rangers Sign Edubray Ramos To Minor League Deal

By TC Zencka | December 11, 2020 at 2:21pm CDT

The Texas Rangers will sign Edubray Ramos to a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training, per the Athletic’s Levi Weaver (via Twitter).

Ramos – who turns 28 years old later this month – spent last season with the Dodgers, though he didn’t make an appearance at the Major League level. He did appear in the bigs in each of the four prior seasons with the Phillies.

In Philly, Ramos was a productive piece of the bullpen with a 3.71 ERA/3.72 FIP across 155 1/3 innings spanning 173 appearances. He made just 20 appearances in 2019, however, with a substandard 5.40 ERA/7.68 FIP and just 6.6 K/9. Though his slider is his primary offering, it’s a touch troubling that his fastball velocity has ticked downwards from 95.9 mph in 2016 to 91.5 mph in 2019.

      This isn’t Young yet. May have suggestions but it’s JD.

    This is a good signing by the Rangers. He has the opportunity to make the team.

      Really? Well the FO has been really good acquiring and signing bp arms over the years. Would be nice to see another deal work out.

    So now we have Ramos, Gatto, Warren, Speas, and de Geus as bullpen arms to choose from coming out of ST. I love the stockpiling they’ve done there early on this off-season. Yet another good move coming from the pen of Chris Young + JD. I like this.

    I’ve noticed that a lot of pictures that’s are used on this site are taken at Busch Stadium. Is that a complement to the Cardinals photographer?

      Lol, I’ve noticed the same thing with Globe Life Park (the old one). Like half of the baseball cards I have are taken there. I’ve also seen a lot of ones from Busch as well. I guess that is just a complement to the camera work there.

        Yeah, maybe. Just noticed that trend over the last few years. Even on like ESPN, you can see it’s Busch.

    Time to get Kim done. Then decide on two of Rosario, Dahl, Schwarber, Duval, Renfroe, or Pederson for LF and bench. Andrus backs up MIF possibly 1b and 3b if Rangers want Tejeda on major league team. That would be a mistake as he is not ready. Then add Shaw to back-up corner IF posts.

    Rangers should probably add at least two starters out of a group of Archer, Williams, Desclafani, Richards and Paxson. That way Cody, Benjamin, and Palumbo can start season building strength at AAA and then perhaps come up in June or July.

      Yeah Kim would be a lot of fun to play 3B in 2021. Dahl or Renfroe seem to be the top of those OF to add. Shaw as a backup option for CIF makes sense but they have to move Andrus or Odor in a trade or released for that to be legit IMO. Archer or Descalfani would be the right addition for the rotation.

        Why do y’all want outfielders so bad? If we get Kim the outfield is set as Solak, Taveras, Gallo barring any trades. Get Kim for 2b (after cutting Odor), and sign a Marwin G for 3rd, then boom, then lineup is set.

          No…there is a lot of talk that Taveras will start in the minors in 2021. I want Kim to play 3B right now. Once Jung comes up you slide Kim to 2B. Solak needs to play 2B & LF, like Santana was able to do prior injury. I want Dahl to play CF/LF. M Gonzo is a spare, I’d take Shaw over him. Too weird to have a guy from that cheating Astros team in a Rangers uniform for me. No thanks.

          Sign Kim, Dahl, Shaw (only if they trade/dump Odor or Andrus), maybe get another backstop (Castro?); Archer or Descalfani. R2G

          I think that for the sake of Solak’s development as a hitter, we need to keep him in LF. I play the game myself, and when you are constantly switching between positions it has an effect on your hitting, it really does. So keep him in LF.

          As for Taveras, I had no clue that he was rumored to be starting the season in the minors. From what I’ve heard, I thought he was gonna be one of the young players to stay up next season. If he does stay in the minors, I think one of the AAAA outfielders we have would do in CF (hopefully Heineman comes back). No need to go and spend at a position where the young players would be back up in 2 months or so. It would be a waste of the very little money we want to spend.

          Release Odor. That’s the comment.

          Sign Kim for 2b because that’s where he’ll stick for the long term.

          Then sign a stopgap 3b. I really don’t care who. Shaw’s fine if you want to go that route.

          Go get Walker for the rotation, and then the team’s set. No need to spend money on players we don’t need.

          (Forgot about catcher: I wouldn’t hate if we signed Castro and I wouldn’t hate if we didn’t. I lie right at 50/50 on that thought.)

    Wow from 2014 to 2016 Ramos put up some incredibly impressive numbers in the minors — it’s actually kind of surprising it took him as long as it did to make the majors given just how dominant he was – especially in 2015 (sub 0.90 ERA!) — anyway, he’s obviously got some work to do to work his way back to the majors but he seems like a good guy so hopefully he can rediscover some of his lost velocity or if not maybe reinvent himself more centered around his (very good) slider and make a comeback in one way or another.
