Sun Apr 2721:38Agustin Ramirez Homers Twice
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez continued to impress on Sunday, going 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in a 7-6 loss to the Mariners. He has been nothing short of spectacular to begin his major league career, slashing .474/.524/1.158 through his first five games. Seven of his nine hits have been for extra bases, with three home runs and four doubles. He's also stolen one base so far, showing off his legs that led to 22 stolen bases in the minors last season. Ramirez has 20 home run and 20 steal upside which is extremely rare for a catcher, and is a must-add unless you already have an elite catcher.

Sat Apr 2609:25Agustin Ramirez Hits First Career Home Run In Multi-Hit Effort
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez kept on hitting on Friday, going 2-for-4 with a double, a home run, two RBI, and a run scored in the 8-4 win over the Mariners. The home run was his first, and it marked the third consecutive multi-hit performance to begin his big league career. Not only that, the 23-year-old has drawn two free passes and has yet to strike out in 12 plate appearances. The Marlins' fourth-ranked prospect is making good on the promise he showed in the minors and is looking like a fantasy stud so far, now 7-for-10 (.700) with five of the seven hits going for extra bases. The Dominican backstop has also stolen a base, somewhat of a rarity for catchers, and is eligible at both C and 1B on Yahoo!, making him all the more appealing. His rostership stands at 31 percent, but is worth a roster spot in all formats until he proves otherwise.

Wed Apr 2312:16Agustin Ramirez Sitting Out After Hot Start
Miami Marlins rookie catcher Agustin Ramirez has burst on the MLB scene in his first few games this week, but he'll get the day off for Wednesday's series finale against the Cincinnati Reds at loanDepot Park. Liam Hicks is doing the catching for right-hander Sandy Alcantara and will bat seventh against Reds right-hander Brady Singer. In his first two major-league games, Ramirez has come out swinging, going 5-for-6 with three doubles, an RBI, stolen base, run scored, two walks and no strikeouts. It will be impossible for the 23-year-old backstop to keep that kind of pace up, but he has quickly earned considerable playing time for the lowly Marlins alongside Hicks. Hicks is also in his rookie season with Miami and has slashed .239/.321/.348 with a .669 OPS, one homer, two doubles, 11 RBI and five runs scored in his first 17 games played.

Wed Apr 2307:38Agustin Ramirez Hits Two Doubles On Tuesday
Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez went 3-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI, and a walk during their 4-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday evening. Ramirez made his MLB debut on Monday and has enjoyed an impressive start to his MLB career. Over his first two games, Ramirez has gone 5-for-6 with three doubles, two walks, one stolen base, and no strikeouts. Given his impressive start, fantasy managers should expect the No. 4-ranked prospect in the Miami system to continue to see the majority of starts behind the dish. Earlier in the season, Ramirez held a solid .252/.313/.479 slash line with seven doubles and three long balls in just 19 games. Last season, Ramirez hit 25 home runs and swiped 22 bags in 126 MiLB games. Given his five-category upside at the catcher position, he should be viewed as a strong option in standard formats heading into his matchup on Wednesday against Cincinnati right-hander Brady Singer.

Tue Apr 2215:19Agustin Ramirez Draws Another Start, Batting Fourth On Tuesday
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez will get another start behind the dish on Tuesday and will bat cleanup. The 23-year-old made his MLB debut on Monday and went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run scored, and a stolen base. The double registered at 110.4 mph off the bat, displaying the power that the 6-foot-1 backstop brings to the table, and the stolen base made good on the baserunning prowess he's shown during his time in the minors. Liam Hicks will sit for the third straight game and could become the backup to Ramirez if the latter continues to hit. Ramirez is worth adding in most leagues given his stolen-base potential at the catcher position, and his dual eligibility at both C and 1B on Yahoo! provides some added fantasy appeal.

Tue Apr 2201:55Agustin Ramirez Notches Two Hits In MLB Debut
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez had a debut to remember, going 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run scored, and a stolen base in a 6-3 win over the Cincinnati Reds. First game? Check. First hit? Check. First steal? Check. First win? Check. It couldn't have gone much better for the Marlins' No. 4 prospect, who has a very good shot at getting some playing time if he keeps up the strong play. Ramirez hit .267 with a .845 OPS while smacking 25 homers and swiping 22 bags in the minors last year, so his upside is a five-category contributor at a position that doesn't have many like that. He's worth an add for anyone who isn't set at the catcher position.

Sun Apr 2021:12Agustin Ramirez Headed To Majors
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez is being recalled to the major league roster and is expected to make his debut against the Reds this homestand, according to Craig Mish. The top prospect was slashing .258/.320/.500 with three home runs and five stolen bases in Triple-A, which are numbers that will certainly play at a weak position. In 126 games between Double-A and Triple-A in 2024, he hit .267 with 25 home runs and 22 steals. That type of power and speed is extremely rare for a catcher, making him worth an add in all two-catcher leagues.

Fri Apr 1812:13Agustin Ramirez Hits Third Home Run
Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez went 2-for-5 with his third home run of the Triple-A regular season on Thursday against Triple-A Memphis. Ramirez has enjoyed a strong start to the season and is nearing his MLB debut. Through 17 contests, the backstop has posted a .274/.338/.532 slash line with three home runs and five stolen bases. Ramirez was one of the prospects included in the Jazz Chisholm Jr. trade last summer. He enjoyed similar success at Triple-A last season, holding a .246/.345/.411 line with nine home runs and nine stolen bases. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on Ramirez's progression with Jacksonville, as he could push for an early MLB debut given his previous experience and success at Triple-A.

Thu Apr 1007:34Agustin Ramirez Hits First Long Ball Of Triple-A Regular Season
Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez went 2-for-4 with his first home run of the Triple-A regular season on Wednesday against Charlotte. This outing extended his current hitting streak to five games. Through the first 10 games of Triple-A Jacksonville's regular season, Ramirez has posted a .275/.318/.475 slash line with five doubles, one long ball, and a 3:13 BB:K. Ramirez has also swiped two bags and tallied seven RBI. The 23-year-old was in contention to break camp with the major league roster but fell just short in the competition. However, if the backstop can begin to hit for power, he may not need much more time in the minor leagues. Last summer, across 68 games at Triple-A, he posted a .245/.345/.411 line. If he continues to perform well, he could find a role in the majors as Nick Fortes and Liam Hicks have yet to show consistent production in the major leagues.

Mon Mar 1710:07Agustin Ramirez Optioned To Triple-A
Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville. Ramirez was competing for a spot on the Opening Day roster during camp. In spring training, Ramirez held a .235/.381/.647 line with one double and two home runs. With Ramirez opening the season at the Triple-A level, fantasy managers should expect Nick Fortes, Liam Hicks, and Rob Brantly to compete for starts in the majors. The Marlins acquired Ramirez from the New York Yankees in the trade that sent Jazz Chisholm Jr. to the Bronx. Across 68 games at the Triple-A level, the 23-year-old held a .246/.345/.411 slash line with 12 doubles and nine home runs. Fantasy managers in NL-only formats should continue to monitor his progression at Triple-A, as he should be in contention to make his MLB debut later in the season.

Thu Mar 623:28Agustin Ramirez Drills First Home Run Of The Spring
Miami Marlins catcher/first base prospect Agustin Ramirez belted his first home run of the spring on Thursday, and it couldn't have come at a better time. With the Marlins trailing 1-0 in the ninth, Ramirez drilled a solo blast that would tie the game 1-1, which would go on to be the final score in the Grapefruit League contest. Ramirez ranks as the Marlins' No. 4 overall prospect, but although he is a catcher by trade, most believe he'll end up at first base, which might be how he gets to the majors sooner rather than later. Miami has veteran Nick Fortes penciled in as the starter with fellow prospect Liam Hicks expected to win the backup role come Opening Day. The 23-year-old hit 25 home runs last season between Double-A and Triple-A but flashed some sneaky base-stealing chops, swiping 22 bags during the campaign. The right-handed hitter also draws a lot of walks, helping him to a career .354 OBP in the minors. An offensive-minded catcher is appealing in fantasy, and he also carries eligibility at both C and 1B, adding to his rosterability once he gets to the big leagues, which should be sometime in 2025.

Wed Mar 510:02Agustin Ramirez Improving On Defense
Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez has focused on improving his defense during spring training. Ramirez worked on his ability to throw out opposing baserunners during the offseason. Marlins president of baseball operations Peter Bendix noted that Ramirez is a catcher. Ramirez has shown steady development at the plate and is expected to be the team's backstop of the future. The Marlins acquired Ramirez from the Yankees in the trade that sent Jazz Chisholm Jr. to the Bronx. The 23-year-old logged 68 games at the Triple-A level last season and held a .246/.345/.411 slash line with 12 doubles and nine home runs. However, once he joined the Marlins, Ramirez took a step forward as he held a .262/.358/.447 slash line with five long balls. If he continues to show growth in spring training, he could push to break the Opening Day roster or earn an early 2025 debut.

Wed Feb 519:43Agustin Ramirez Could Contend For Starting Job
According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez will be in the mix for the starting catching job during spring training. Jackson noted that Ramirez may need more development in the minor leagues but could make a case to open the season in the majors, depending on his performance during spring training. Ramirez was acquired by the Marlins during the 2024 season in a trade that sent Jazz Chisholm Jr. to the Bronx. If he were to open the season in the minors, Nick Fortes would slot in as the everyday backstop, with Liam Hicks or Rob Brantly slotting in as the No. 2 option. Ramirez is ranked as the No. 4 prospect in the Miami system on MLB Pipeline. Last summer, the 23-year-old opened the season with Double-A and held a .224/.328/.570 line. He was then moved up to Triple-A, where he posted a .246/.345/.411 slash line. If he can crack the Opening Day roster, he carries sneaky power upside in NL-only formats.

Wed Aug 14 202409:44Agustin Ramirez Rolling With Triple-A Jacksonville
Miami Marlins catcher prospect Agustin Ramirez has impressed with Triple-A Jacksonville since joining the Marlins' organization from the New York Yankees in a trade that sent Jazz Chisholm to New York. Ramirez has played 11 games with Jacksonville and is hitting .317/.417/.561 with two homers, four doubles, and eight RBI. The 22-year-old is one of the top catcher prospects in the minors and is showing why in his new organization. If he keeps this up in Jacksonville, he could earn a look with the Marlins before this season is over.

Fri Aug 9 202410:00Agustin Ramirez Makes It Back-To-Back Three-Hit Nights
Miami Marlins catcher prospect Agustin Ramirez stayed hot with another three-hit night for Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, making it back-to-back three-hit performances. Ramirez was traded to Miami at the deadline from the New York Yankees in the Jazz Chisholm trade. He is now the No. 6 prospect for the Marlins. The 22-year-old is hitting .276 with 21 homers and 76 RBI with three different teams across two levels this season. Ramirez is one of the most intriguing catcher prospects in the minors and he carries a lot of pop in his bat from the right side of the plate. One step away from the majors, Ramirez could potentially get a look with the Marlins before the season is over.

Wed Jul 10 202421:21Agustin Ramirez Heating Up In Triple-A
Promoted from Double-A Somerset to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on June 19, New York Yankees catcher/first base prospect Agustin Ramirez struggled in his few games. Through his first ten games, he went just 4-for-39 (.111 AVG) with one home run, five RBI, and a 5:11 BB/SO ratio. However, he seems to have adjusted. Recently, he's turned things around and played much better. Over the last week, he's 6-for-25 (.273 AVG) with three homers, four RBI, and a 3:5 BB/SO. Between Double-A and Triple-A, Ramirez is slashing .266/.356/.532 with 14 doubles, 20 homers, 58 RBI, and 36:59 BB/SO. The Yankees' No. 20 prospect (per MLB.com), Ramirez could make his MLB debut later this season.

Wed Jun 26 202413:08Agustin Ramirez Having Slow Start In Triple-A
New York Yankees catcher/first base prospect Agustin Ramirez was promoted from Double-A Somerset to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on June 19. In 58 Double-A games, he slashed .290/.372/.570 with 14 doubles, 16 home runs, 49 RBI, and 13 stolen bases. However, he's had a slow start to his Triple-A tenure. Through 22 plate appearances, he's managed just one hit. But this is a small sample size, and Ramirez's track record and potential suggest that he could turn things around. At just 22 years old, he's the Yankees' No. 20 prospect (per MLB.com) and expected to make his MLB debut in 2026.

Sat Jun 8 202407:35Agustin Ramirez Launches Three Home Runs
New York Yankees catching prospect Agustin Ramirez launched three home runs and extended his hitting streak to three games. Over his past 13 games, Ramirez has been exceptional with a .321/.339/.607 line and 12 RBI. Through the early part of the season in his first extended look at Double-A, the 22-year-old has looked quite comfortable with a .282/.377/.585 line with 15 total long balls, 41 RBI, and a 28:38 BB:K ratio in 49 games. This is a significant improvement compared to his .211 AVG he held through 31 games with Double-A Somerset last summer. MLB Pipeline projects Ramirez to reach the majors in 2026, but with how well he is performing, a 2025 debut is not out of reach.

Wed May 8 202413:25Agustin Ramirez Continues To Perform At Double-A
New York Yankees catching prospect Agustin Ramirez has been showing both excellent power and plate discipline in his first extended look at Double-A pitching. The 22-year-old went 3-3 at the plate with two walks and launched his tenth home run of the season on Tuesday which brings him to an overall .258/.405/.618 line. Ramirez is on pace to smash his previous season-high of 18 long balls that he set last season across Single, High, and a brief stint with Double-A. In addition to his power potential, Ramirez has shown excellent plate discipline. This season, he sports a 21:20 BB:K ratio, and during the early part of May, he has a 7:2 ratio. The 20th-ranked prospect in the Yankee system is still several years away from the major leagues but could become worth watching in dynasty if he continues to show this strong combination of power and plate discipline.
