It’s not the player whose name starts in “Y-O” that we’re all waiting for, but the Mets did acquire an arm, sending cash to the White Sox for right-hander Yohan Ramirez. The 28-year-old was recently DFA’s after posting a 4.23 ERA with Pittsburgh and Chicago last season.
Ramirez debuted with the Mariners back in 2020, flashing tantalizing strikeout stuff but throwing nowhere near enough strikes and being a bit too home prone. After just over 50 innings with Seattle, Ramirez was DFA’d in early 2022 before bouncing to the Guardians and eventually the PIrates.
