Cleveland Indians star Jose Ramirez's timetable to return from his hand injury has been set.
The team announced Tuesday the two-time All-Star will return to game activity in five to seven weeks following surgery to repair a hamate fracture.
Based on the timetable, Ramirez won't be back before the regular season ends Sept. 29. If he returns within five weeks, that could put him back in Cleveland's lineup for a potential American League Wild Card Game on Oct. 2.
The injury occurred when Ramirez fouled a ball off Kansas City Royals starter Glenn Sparkman in the first inning of Saturday's game.
