José Ramírez is back and ready to roar — the seven-time All-Star third baseman returned to the Cleveland Guardians’ lineup after a five-week hand surgery layoff, batting second and playing third. Despite the team’s 15-15 record while he was sidelined, they kept pace in the AL Central, proving resilience under pressure. Manager Stephen Vogt praised the team’s grit, calling the absence a test they passed. Ramírez, who previously battled a similar hand injury in 2019, didn’t need rehab, showing confidence in his recovery. To make room, outfielder Kahlil Watson was sent down — a tough call for Vogt, who lauded Watson’s talent and professionalism. With Ramírez back, the Guardians hope to reignite their offense. Meanwhile, outfielder Angel Martinez could return soon after his foot injury, set to play nine innings in a rehab game Wednesday.
