3B Aramis Ramirez tied his personal best Friday with a four hit game, which included a homer, a single and two doubles. His homer in the sixth gave him his 100th game-winning RBI of the season. "Obviously, we've got some players that are really capable of getting hot and carrying you," said Piniella, referring chiefly to Ramirez, who missed two months with a dislocated left shoulder.
100 game winning runs driven in....this season? Just call him "money", "Mr. Clutch", or whatever other name you can come up with.
Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....
In all seriousness, what do people think of A-Ram for the rest of the year? Where would you rank him out of 3B for what he'll do from here on out? Obviously when he's healthy he's a great hitter, I just can't decide if I think he'll keep hitting, or if he's too much of a risk.

I mean if he started out struggling coming back from his shoulder injury, I would be scared, but he seems fine and I really think hes going to beast it the rest of the year. I dont think hes that much of a risk tbh

STUNNING!
Wait. Are they talking about times he helped the other team win, too?
I know most people said that Aramis Ramirez's power would not be that good when he returned this year. However, counting today's game (in which he's 2/2 w/ a HR - so far) he has 4 HR in the last 6 games. Is this a sample of whats to come? Will he have power this year? Or is this just a great "sell high" time?

what are you planning on getting for him as a 'sell high' guy? most people underrate this guy so your probably not going to get much for him anyways... may as well just stick with him hes consistant and showing no signs on ailing ill affects with the shoulder, and like you said he hit another solo shot today giving him 4 in 6 games, not to mention so far including today 13 hits over that 6 game stretch... i don't know why so many people down Aram, hes consistant and obviously showing hes got power so ride him out (btw the .336 average at 3B is gem to have, even if he doesn't scorch 30 HR this year a .300++ is nice to have in the lineup)..
