The Los Angeles Dodgers place Manny Ramirez back on the D.L.
The Dodgers have placed Manny Ramirez back on the D.L. with a right calf strain. Manager Joe Torre expects ManRam to miss at least three weeks this time around. Ramirez has played in 61 games for the Dodgers this year and he is 59 of 186 (.317 avg, .925 OPS) with 31 runs scored, 8 homers and 29 RBIs. Ramirez’ health has been a huge issue for the Dodgers this year as he has been dinged up a lot. The Dodgers would be smart to let him rest until he’s 100% as rushing him back just seems to wind up with him going right back on the D.L.
