Narratively speaking, José Ramírez could not have picked a better time to get hot for the Cleveland Indians.
Through the fun of cherry-picking, Ramírez has 19 hits in his last 43 plate appearances. Seven of those are home runs, four are doubles, and he has walked two and struck out four times. He has at least one hit in all but one game dating back to Sept. 11 and he has multiple hits in all but two games. No one in that span can top his 313 wRC+ and .463/.488/1.073 slash. He’s a man on a mission to single-handedly carry his team’s offense into the postseason.
