It’s good that Ramírez is playing, but he’s now caught just once in six games. The Marlins are eventually going to have to commit to going forward with him as a catcher, which might mean sending him back to Triple-A, or to give up on him there, which, given his struggles defensively, is a legitimate option. The Marlins have Liam Hicks behind the plate tonight after starting Nick Fortes the previous two games.

Ramírez had been 1-for-24 since his two-homer game on Apr. 28, which is probably part of why he didn’t start tonight. Especially with the Marlins having Nick Fortes back — he’s caught the last two days — Ramírez is probably not a mixed-league catcher right now, even though he still offers that kind of potential.

Ramírez has been the talk of the fantasy baseball universe since arriving in the majors last week, hitting .474 (9-for-19) with three homers, five RBI and one steal through his first five games. The 23-year-old has some legitimate defensive concerns, but he’s one of the most advanced hitters of any catching prospect in the game and possesses uncommon stolen base prowess for a below-average runner. He’s rostered in all fantasy formats at this juncture and should remain a middle-of-the-order run producer in the heart of Miami’s lineup.
