José Ramírez nears return from injury, per Ken Rosenthal

José Ramírez is closing in on a return from injury, according to Ken Rosenthal. The Cleveland Guardians star has been sidelined, but his comeback appears imminent.

What happened?

Ramírez and teammate Angel Martinez have been recovering from undisclosed injuries. Rosenthal’s report suggests both players are progressing well in their rehab. The Guardians have missed Ramírez’s offensive firepower-he entered the season as one of MLB’s top third basemen.

Why it matters for José Ramírez

A healthy Ramírez is vital for Cleveland’s playoff push. The three-time All-Star has been a cornerstone of the lineup, batting .285 with 15 home runs before his injury. His return could bolster the Guardians’ offense as they chase a division title.

What comes next?

No official timeline has been set, but Rosenthal’s hint points to a potential return within weeks. The Guardians will likely ease Ramírez back into action, monitoring his workload to avoid setbacks. Fans are eager to see him back in the lineup, especially with the postseason looming.
