“Jose was truly committed to wanting to stay in Cleveland,” said owner Paul Dolan.
Jose Ramirez hits a single in the first inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park.CLEVELAND, Ohio – Sparked by the desire of Jose Ramirez to stay in Cleveland, a deal that seemed dead was revived by a phone call from Rafe Nieves.
The big decision was both sides’ agreement to add five years to the current two seasons left on the contract for the All-Star third baseman. The Guardians were not about to do one of those 10- to 12-year contracts given to some stars such as Francisco Lindor . “Let’s give him a big raise now,” was the decision made by the Guardians. With Ramirez set to earn $12 million this season, how about $22 million?
“We wanted to keep Jose here,” said Antonetti, “but do it in a way that we could have a high caliber of team around him.”
