Ramirez was traded from the Guardians to the Cubs on Monday in exchange for cash considerations.

Ramirez hasn't shown himself to be anything more than a bench piece through three major-league seasons, hitting .271/.308/.405 for his career. He makes good contact, striking out in just 18.2 percent of his plate appearances, but he's walked just 4.0 percent of the time and has below-average power, as seen in his 5.6 percent career barrel rate. That profile might work as a passable starter if he were a good defensive center fielder, but he's graded out poorly there and fits better in a corner. He's at least found himself with a team that has plenty of playing time available, but he'll be an unexciting option even if he plays regularly.
