2018 Atlanta Braves Player Review: Jose Ramirez

For some reason, there’s one moment of Opening Day that I remember with clarity. Specifically, it was a disagreement I had with someone in the Game Thread. A very futile disagreement: whether Rex Brothers was the worst reliever the Braves had (I disagreed), or whether it was someone else, namely, Jose Ramirez. After Opening Day, we already knew the extent of Brothers’ “contribution” to the 2018 Atlanta Braves season (he came in and walked two guys). What we didn’t know (since Ramirez didn’t appear in the Opening Day game), however, was how bad Jose Ramirez would be in his not-quite-as-short-but-still-short 2018 tenure.
