KANSAS CITY, Mo — Cleveland Guardians All-Star Jose Ramírez jammed his right wrist while attempting to steal a base in the third inning against the Kansas City Royals and later left the game Saturday.
Ramírez, who was 0 for 2 with a walk, exited in the sixth inning of a 4-3 Royals.
“He’s doing alright. It’s a mild sprain,” Guardians manager Stephen Vogt told reporters. “He’s day-to-day. … We all know what that means with Josey. Going to see how he feels in the morning. I think I’m going to have to hold him down to keep him out of there.”
Ramírez has been durable, playing in 156-plus games the previous three seasons. He hit .299 with 39 homers and 118 RBIs last season, earning All-Star recognition for a fourth straight year and honors as the best offensive player at his position for the fifth time.
