May 19 SS Hanley Ramirez went 1-for-12 with seven strikeouts in the weekend series against Kansas City, a stretch that included five straight strikeouts. On Saturday, Ramirez signed a six-year, $70 million contract. He’s batting .185 (5-for-27) in the 10 days since news broke about his contract. He ended a streak of 11 consecutive hitless at-bats with a single to start the sixth inning on Sunday.
