Agustin Ramirez Flashing Five-Category Upside at Triple-A, Emerging as Must-Stash Catcher?
Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez continues to swing a hot bat since being sent down to Triple-A, and the bat isn't his only strength. He has also flashed decent power and speed while showcasing above-average defensive skills. Across 16 games at Triple-A this year, Ramirez is slashing .317/.400/.567 with four home runs, five steals, a 10.0% walk rate, a 20.0% strikeout rate, and 154 wRC+. His stats in the majors weren't atrocious, either, as he posted a .663 OPS and 88 wRC+. Defensively, Ramirez has thrown out five of 18 base-stealers for a 27.8% caught stealing rate. It seems like Ramirez will be called back up to the majors soon, and when he does, he could have some immediate fantasy appeal. He's worth stashing ahead of his anticipated promotion. Managers should act fast, because he's rostered in 39% of leagues now, and that percentage will increase going forward.
