Cleveland is not sure whether Jose Ramirez will play in Thursday’s opener at Minnesota.
The All-Star third baseman took ground balls on Monday at the Indians’ spring training complex in Arizona, a day after he fouled a pitch off the area below his left knee and left the field in a cart. The Indians said he will rejoin the team for a workout on Wednesday.
Manager Terry Francona says Ramirez taking the field is “a pretty good indicator he’s doing all right.”
