Alexei Ramirez went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored against the Twins on Monday.
With Jeff Keppinger hitting as poorly as anyone in the majors, Ramirez is getting a little look in the second spot in the White Sox lineup. He's not ideal there, but his fantasy value will get a nice boost for as long as he remains in the spot. May 13 - 11:44 PM

Alexei Ramirez went 3-for-4 with two RBI for the second straight day on Thursday.

Ramirez has hit .305 with six homers in 190 at-bats since the All-Star break. Since he's batting low in the order for the most part, he's still not amassing particularly good run and RBI numbers. However, his play has improved steadily after an awful start.

Alexei Ramirez (wrist) went 1-for-4 in his return to action Sunday against the Rangers.

Alexei Ramirez (wrist) is expected to return to the lineup Sunday.

Ramirez and Alejandro De Aza are both nursing left wrist injuries following a collision Friday, but Ramirez's is the milder of the two. The shortstop will test the wrist out in batting practice before being cleared.

Alexei Ramirez went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer, helping to lead the White Sox to a 9-5 victory over the Rangers on Friday.

His two-run blast off Alexi Ogando in the ninth inning provided valuable insurance runs, making a Ranger comeback extremely unlikely. Ramirez got off to an insanely slow start to the season, but has really turned things around over the last two months. Since June 1, he's hitting .315 (56-for-178) with three homers and 24 RBI.
Sat, Jul 28, 2012 12:43:00 AM

Alexei Ramirez went 3-for-5 with a triple and two RBI in Sunday's loss to the Blue Jays.

Ramirez tripled home two runs in the fifth inning of Chicago's 11-9 loss. The big day was a capper to perhaps the most disappointing half of Ramirez's career, though he's still managed 44 RBI in 83 games, and is hitting .444 since July 1. He's a decent buy-low candidate heading into the second half.
Sun, Jul 8, 2012 06:30:00 PM

Alexei Ramirez doubled twice and drove in two runs to lead the White Sox to a 4-3 victory over the Rays on Wednesday.

The White Sox earned a three-game sweep in St. Pete, winning two of the games by one run. Ramirez has had multiple hits in four of the last five games, raising his average to .228. That doesn't seem like much, but it's the highest he's been since April 24. He still figures to be a decent enough mixed-league MI option this year.
