April 21: Ramirezs promotion to the majors is official, per a team announcement. Miami officially recalled Ramirez and righty from Triple-A Jacksonville. Lefty was optioned to Triple-A to open one spot, while Brantly was placed on the 10-day IL due to a right lat strain in order to open the other. April 20: The Marlins are calling up catching prospect prior to tomorrows game against the Reds, reports. Ramirez will be making his Major League debut whenever the 23-year-old backstop appears in a game. The corresponding moves arent yet known, though Ramirez is already on Miamis 40-man roster. The likeliest 26-man roster move probably relates to Ray Allen Jersey catcher , who made an early exit from todays 7-5 win over the Phillies due to right shoulder discomfort. As per the , the Marlins were already planning to call Ramirez up prior to todays game and Brantlys injury, so its a rough outcome for Brantly if he got hurt and lost his roster spot in the same day (though if he was on the cusp of a DFA anyhow, hell at least continue to accrue MLB service time and pay a bit longer this way). Baseball Prospectus ranked Ramirez as the 55th-best prospect in baseball prior to the 2025 season, and ESPNs Kiley McDaniel also had Ramirez 96th on his top-100 list. In their ranking of Marlins prospects only, Baseball America slots Ramirez third and MLB Pipeline has him fourth. The pundits agree that Ramirez has a lot of hitting potential, with plus power and good contact numbers, plus a good batting eye. While not a quick baserunner, Ramirez is a canny baserunner who has stolen 53 bases (out of 63 attempts) during his minor league career in particular, he loves to steal third base by timing up pitchers looks, as per BAs scouting report. It remains to be seen if Ramirez will stick behind the plate, as he is considered below average in pretty much every defensive category. Ramirez does has a strong throwing arm, but evaluators note that he cant take full advantage due to a lack of accuracy, plus he isnt quick in getting the ball out of his glove. If former first-rounder is the Marlins true catcher of the future, Ramirezs eventual home might be first base, so that will put more pre sure on Ramirez to produce at the bat-first position. The Marlins have used Ramirez just as a catcher (and DH) during his two years in their organization. Ramirez was an international signing for the Yankees during the 2018 intl window, and was dealt to Miami last July as part of the Marlins received for Over 86 games and 362 plate appearances at the Triple-A level, Ramirez has hit .248/.340/.430, with 12 home runs, 19 doubles, and 14 steals in 15 attempts. Since starting catcher is also on the 10-day IL recovering from an oblique injury, the Marlins decision to promote Ramirez may have been at least partially forced by a lack of depth behind the plate, which has now become pronounced if Brantly is out. Ramirez and Rule 5 Draft pick now comprise Miamis catching corps, and if Ramirez hits well, the rebuilding Marlins will likely let him stick around on the big league roster in order to get more experience in the Show.
