Ramirez (shoulder) is expected to return to the mound within the next couple days, Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ramirez has been dealing with a sore shoulder which has prohibited the right-hander from participating in any throwing drills in recent days. Consider him day-to-day as he looks to battle for a spot in the Blue Jays' bullpen for the beginning of the 2018 season.

Ramirez's incredible 47.2-innings scoreless streak ended Wednesday when he allowed four runs on three hits and a walk in a loss to Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander's eye-popping streak were the first he allowed in 2017 through stints in Double-A New Hampshire, Triple-A Buffalo and now Toronto. According to Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com, the 26-year-old converted outfielder is one of three pitchers in MLB history to not allow a hit in six of his first seven big league games. "It has been an incredible year for the kid," manager John Gibbons said. "It was going to happen." Ramirez will likely begin 2018 back in Buffalo, but he'll certainly get a long look in spring training to see if he's ready to contribute at the big-league level.

Ramirez allowed one hit and struck out a pair over two innings Sunday in Baltimore, maintaining his perfect ERA across three levels this season.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old September call-up has now logged two scoreless appearances in his first three days as a big leaguer. Ramirez allowed one hit while notching four strikeouts through four frames against the O's over the weekend, and he appears poised to take on a high-leverage role during the final month.

The Blue Jays selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday, John Lott of The Athletic Toronto reports.
EDGE Analysis
The converted position player did not allow run across 37.2 innings combined with Double-A New Hampshire and the Bisons, over which he struck out 45 and walked only 10. Ramirez may have a future as a high-leverage reliever, and his strikeout ability may make him useful in AL-only leagues for the season's final month.
