Ramirez joins elite... In the 2018 Baseball Forecaster, Ryan Bloomfield said that José Ramírez (3B/2B, CLE) had the "support for a five-category redux." Boy, was he ever right. Ramirez has hit .301 with 37 HR, 91 RBI, 87 R, and 27 SB through 442 at-bats in 2018. Does he have skills support behind his MVP-like performance?
