Ramirez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.
Ramirez was pinch run for late in Sunday's game, and his rest will extend through Monday as well. The veteran continues to struggle at the plate, but did hit a leadoff double that sparked the Brewers to a victory Sunday. He should continue to serve as the everyday third baseman in Milwaukee, but will likely receive regular days off given his age.

Sat Jun 20 201512:56Ramirez out of lineup for Saturday's game against Rockies
Ramirez is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

The veteran third baseman is known to hit in bunches, but it was likely time for a regular day off. Hector Gomez will take over at third base, but Ramirez should be available to pinch hit, if needed.

Ramirez went 3-for-4 with three doubles and 5 RBI on Friday against the Nationals.
The veteran third-baseman proved he still has some juice left in his bat with doubles in each of his first three plate appearances. Friday's performance raised his BABIP to a still-unlucky .230, so owners can expect Ramirez's .223 average to continue to trend upward.
Thu Jun 11 201513:19Ramirez (elbow) not viewed as fit by Mets
Ramirez (elbow) is not viewed as a fit by the Mets, as they still hope to get David Wright (back) in the near term, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports.
The Mets had been rumored to be in potential talks to acquire Ramirez, despite his poor season, due to Wright's absence. Heyman also noted that the Mets prefer someone for third base now who could switch positions. That likely would mean someone like Ben Zobrist or Martin Prado, who has flexibility to move around the diamond.

Ramirez had started the last five games for the Brewers, doing so for just the second time since the beginning of the season.

Tue May 19 201523:11Ramirez 1-4 with solo home run in win over Detroit on Tuesday
Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over Detroit on Tuesday.
Ramirez capped off a back-to-back-to-back effort that the Brewers put on Anibal Sanchez in the third inning. Ryan Braun and Adam Lind hit consecutive long balls before Ramirez stepped up to make it three straight. He now has five home runs and 14 RBI so far this season. When healthy, Ramirez is a solid fantasy option at the hot corner.

Ramirez missed six straight games due to a lower-back issue, but he'll finally rejoin the lineup Friday, batting fifth. However, back issues have a tendency for recurrence, especially for players Ramirez's age, so the team may take a cautious approach with him to avoid re-injury.
Wed May 13 201510:38Ramirez's back improving
Ramirez's back is improving, but he will be held out of the lineup again Wednesday in advance of a team off day, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
It's not clear if Ramirez could have played Wednesday, but with a team off day coming Thursday and fill-in third baseman Elian Herrera homering in three straight games, manager Craig Counsell will take the cautious route and hold Ramirez out another day. Ramirez could be back in the lineup as soon as Friday, but if it is determined that day that he needs more time to recover, the Brewers may consider a backdated disabled list stint since he would have already missed a week's worth of action.

Consider the veteran day-to-day in advance of Monday's series opener against the White Sox.

Fri May 8 201521:06Ramirez scratched from Friday's lineup with lower-back tightness
Ramirez was scratched from Friday's lineup with lower-back tightness, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
There was no announcement of Ramirez's scratch prior Friday's game. Rather, Elian Herrera simply made his way out to third base for the top of the first inning. Ramirez's status for Saturday is uncertain, but the silver lining here is that it's not a setback with the hamstring injury that cost Ramirez some time last weekend.
