Hanley Ramirez

Hanley Ramirez is out Friday for Red Sox

Boston Red Sox first baseman/designated hitter Hanley Ramirez is not in the lineup Friday against the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

The Red Sox are playing in a National League park tonight, so no use of the DH. Ramirez will serve as extra muscle off the bench as Boston faces right-hander Sal Romano.

Our models project Ramirez for a .276 batting average with 1 home run, 5 RBI, and 4 runs scored over 33 plate appearances remaining this season.
