Hanley Ramirez leaves game with shoulder strain

He may get off to a slow start due to his own apprehensiveness, but give it a few days; he'll be back to getting his hits and stealing his bags in no time.

NOT! I too gave him additional day off and he filled the damned stat line on his return. Damn I hate fantasy baseball!

What are you complaining about??? Thats great news. That means the injury is okay, which means you can feel safe about playing him in the future. Sure, I'd like to have his numbers for today, but I'm sure as heck glad to have him back, and that outweighs the disappointment I have for benching him today.

I was being facetious. One of my challanges with Ramirez is that I am also carrying Nomar and Orlando Cabrera - I'd move Ramirez BUT his production greatly exceeds his trade value at this point, so I will simply wait and enjoy.

Sorry, I missed the humor. I have Cabrera and Ramirez as well. I also have Ellis, so I have felt, most of the year, that I need a better SS. I have been trying to package A-ram with others for a better SS, but haven't been getting anywhere. I think I'm going to have to stick with him as well.
