Harold Ramirez On The Bench Monday
9 months agoTampa Bay Rays outfielder Harold Ramirez is on the bench for Monday's contest against the visiting Texas Rangers after he started each of the team's first four games as the designated hitter. Yandy Diaz will serve as the DH and bat leadoff for the Rays, while Austin Shenton gets the nod at first base and will hit eighth against Rangers right-hander Dane Dunning. Ramirez could probably use the day off after going just 1-for-17 (.059) with three strikeouts in the first four games of the 2024 season over the weekend against the Toronto Blue Jays. If Shenton gets off to a hot start offensively for the Rays, he could see more playing time moving forward at the cold corner against right-handed pitcher after he hit .304/.423/.584 with 29 home runs in the minors in 2023.
