Scout’s note
A switch-hitter from Temblador, Venezuela, Ramírez was slugging .942 with 19 steals at Iowa when the Cubs called in May — at 22. Five-nine with 107.9 mph exit velocity is the fun kind of contradiction: the frame says slap hitter, the baseball says otherwise.
The Wire
▲ On the field: Fans urge the Cubs to free Pedro Ramirez from the bench and play the MLB-ready top prospect over struggling Nico Hoerner.
