The Angels released Ramirez on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez had been included in the Angels' 60-man roster pool and was throwing regularly at the team's alternate training site, but a callup to the big club never came for the veteran reliever. The right-hander is now free to pursue opportunities with other organizations.

Ramirez will be part of the Angels' 60-man roster.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez, who is not on the 40-man roster, was signed by the Angels to a minor-league deal in December. He appeared 22 times with Cleveland and Toronto last season, posting a combined 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP in 25 innings. He'll need a solid camp to find himself in the mix for a back-end bullpen spot.

Ramirez signed a minor-league contract with Los Angeles on Friday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez pitched in 22 games a season ago across stops with Cleveland and the Blue Jays, posting a 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP with a 24:15 K:BB over 25 innings of relief work. He'll be tasked with earning a spot on the big-league roster during spring training, though even if he begins the year in Triple-A, he could surface in the majors at some point during the season.

Ramirez cleared waivers and elected free agency Wednesday, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez recorded a 5.40 ERA this season in 25 innings for Cleveland and Toronto. The 30-year-old owns a career 4.46 ERA over parts of six seasons, meaning he's likely to keep finding work but is unlikely to pitch in a high-leverage role.

Toronto designated Ramirez for assignment Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old righty reliever was bumped off the 40-man roster to make room for another bullpen arm in Ryan Tepera (elbow), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Over 22 appearances between the Indians and Blue Jays this season, Ramirez has posted a 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP across 25 innings.

Ramirez will serve as the Blue Jays' opener Monday against the Rangers, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez signed with the Blue Jays earlier this week after being released by the Indians and had his contract selected from Triple-A on Sunday. Either Brock Stewart or Zack Godley will be the bulk pitcher to follow.

Ramirez's contract was selected from Triple-A Buffalo prior to Sunday's game against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

He allowed five runs in an inning back on July 26, which hurt his ratios, but he has not allowed a run in eight of his last 10 appearances for the Bisons. Look for him to work in low-leverage situations.

Ramirez joined the Blue Jays on a minor-league deal Wednesday, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez tossed 16.2 innings for Cleveland this year, posting an unimpressive 5.40 ERA. He owns a career 4.41 mark in parts of six seasons but hasn't recorded an ERA below 4.50 since 2015. He'll head to High-A Dunedin to build up for now but could join the Blue Jays' bullpen at some point down the stretch.

Ramirez was released by Cleveland on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ramirez opened the year in the big leagues but was designated for assignment in mid-May after recording a 5.40 ERA in 16.2 innings. He then went on to record a 4.91 ERA in 29.1 innings for Triple-A Columbus. He'll presumably be looking for a minor-league contract with a new club.

Ramirez was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus.

EDGE Analysis

He passed through waivers unclaimed and will head to Triple-A to serve as organizational bullpen depth.
