Nationals Select Erasmo Ramirez, Place Hunter Harvey On Injured List

By Darragh McDonald | April 21, 2022 at 2:32pm CDT

The Nationals announced that they have selected the contract of right-handed pitcher Erasmo Ramirez. To make room on the active roster, fellow righty Hunter Harvey was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right pronator strain. Utility player Ehire Adrianza was transferred from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL to open up a spot on the 40-man roster.

Ramirez, who turns 32 next month, has appeared in each of the past ten MLB seasons, spending time with the Mariners, Rays, Red Sox, Mets and Tigers. Although he began his career as a starting pitcher, he has spent more time as a reliever as time has gone on, with his last MLB start occuring back in 2018. Last year, he threw 26 2/3 innings out of Detroit’s bullpen, with a 5.74 ERA. His 18.3% strikeout rate was subpar, but he avoided free passes with a 4.6% rate that was about half the league average. In seven Triple-A innings so far this year, he’s yet to allow a run, with 12 strikeouts and a single walk.

Harvey was a first round pick of the Orioles in 2013 but had his career trajectory repeatedly derailed by injuries. He pitched a few innings out of Baltimore’s bullpen in each of the 2019-21 seasons, but they gave up on him this offseason and put him on waivers. He was claimed by the Giants, who put him on waivers again, this time landing with the Nats. In 2 2/3 scoreless innings thus far, Harvey has struck three and walked one. The club didn’t provide a timeline for his recovery.

As for Adrianza, he was signed to a one-year, $1.5MM deal in the offseason to help the club’s infield depth. However, he began the year on the IL with a quad strain and now won’t be able to help the team until June at the earliest. The 32-year-old has appeared in the past nine MLB seasons, spending time with the Giants, Twins and Braves while playing every position on the diamond except catcher.

    Maybe Harvey should consider changing up his delivery or something because this is ridiculous

    Almost unbelievable that Hunter Harvey hasn’t even been able to throw 10 big league innings in a single season.

    That arm just won’t hold up.

    Erasmo’s numbers aren’t always pretty to look at but he’s carved out a very nice career being the versatile guy who eats innings wherever you need him.

    When Ramirez was in Seattle he would start the game great then if an error was made behind or a HR double anything positive for the other team you could see his body language would change. Shoulders droop head down. It is too bad he couldn’t overcome that sooner or at all. Haven’t seen him pitch lately. SABR guys hated him because like was said numbers are not great but he will eat innings. In those innings something bad would happen and he was done. Watch him and pay attention for this to happen.

    I don’t think MLB pitcher is the right profession for Hunter Harvey.

    It’s like Harvey is made of paper mache.

    At least the Nats have their $30M a year “ace” on the IL already to keep Harvey company. Strasburg can certainly teach him a thing or two about being a professional injured list attendee.
