For Sunday’s game, the Yankees have announced their starting lineup.

Right now, he is batting just .113 in 16 games for the Yankees.

The Yankees wrote (via X) on August 3: “The New York Yankees today announced that they have acquired outfielder Heliot Ramos from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for minor league infielder Kaeden Kent and left-handed pitcher Henry Lalane.”

Here’s what people have been saying about Ramos recently:

@eyyankees: “Heliot Ramos is a very hard watch. Don’t know why he was hitting there or is batting 3rd.”

@Gruntbaseball: “There is no reason Heliot Ramos should be playing over Jasson Domínguez….I truly do not understand trading for a slower version of Jasson Domínguez”

@omurray271:Luis Garcia Jr and Heliot Ramos are traveling in exact opposite directions as trade deadline acquisitions. I’m to the point where I think Ramos was a panic trade & it’s not working well at all. Should have just let Jasson get some run.”

@NYY228: “Am i allowed to call boone a subpar manager because he keeps batting Ramos 3rd or will people try and argue he’s not? GET THIS GUY OUT OF HERE.”
