What is your read on Jose Ramirez at this point? Is he worn out? Pull happy? He's been in this slump for about six weeks now, and it's concerning with the postseason just days away.

Ramirez ended his regular season with no hits in four plate appearances against the Royals on Sunday, but the slugger made some progress one night earlier. He homered, doubled and singled, and he admitted after Saturday's game that the pursuit of some in-season milestones may have hindered his concentration and approach.
"I think you'll be able to see the difference a little bit here," Ramirez said via team interpreter Will Clements.
