Hanley Ramirez said Friday that he feels he's ready to return to the Dodgers' lineup with his hamstring as is.

Ramirez said that he's been trying to come back, but that the Dodgers won't let him yet. He progressed to running in the outfield prior to Tuesday's game, and the team wants to take every precaution not to rush him back and risk re-injury. He was initially given a 4-6 week timetable for his return, and even the early end of that projection doesn't have him returning until early June.

Hanley Ramirez (hamstring) ran in the outfield prior to Tuesday's game.

It's the first time he's run since a left hamstring strain forced him to the disabled list earlier this month. Ramirez is being brought along slowly, but it appears that he has a shot to return closer to the short end of his 4-6 week timetable.

Hanley Ramirez (hamstring) has been taking ground balls and hitting recently.

He's yet to test out his hamstring by running, which is no surprise since he's barely over two weeks into his 4-6 week timetable. Dodgers manager Don Mattingly stressed that the club will make sure Hanley's hamstring is fully healed before bringing him back.

Hanley Ramirez is expected to miss 4-6 weeks after an MRI confirmed the diagnosis of a left hamstring strain.

Ramirez was placed on the disabled list over the weekend after he injured his hamstring during Friday's game. While there was initially some hope that he would be able to return at the minimum, he'll now likely be sidelined until the early part of June. Dee Gordon should get most of the playing time at shortstop for now.

Dodgers placed SS Hanley Ramirez on the 15-day disabled list with a left hamstring strain.

Well, that was quick. Ramirez was back for just four games before requiring a return trip to the disabled list. The good news is that a strain could be as simple as a two-week fix as opposed to the torn thumb ligament that kept him out for the entire first month. The bad news is that Ramirez was raking, hitting .455/.500/.909 with a home run in 12 plate appearances. Check back in a few weeks to see how he's progressing.

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal confirms that Hanley Ramirez (hamstring) will be placed on the disabled list.

Ramirez suffered a strained hamstring Friday and is likely to require an extended absence. The Dodgers are waiting to see if Adrian Gonzalez (neck) is healthy enough to return to the lineup Saturday before making any roster decisions. Mark Ellis is also a candidate to be placed on the disabled list.

Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports reports that the Dodgers are "not optimistic" that Hanley Ramirez (hamstring) will avoid the disabled list.

Ramirez left Friday's game with a strained hamstring and is looking at missing extended time. He'll likely undergo an MRI on Saturday before the Dodgers make any decisions. Ramirez was batting .455 (5-for-11) with a home run and two doubles in his return from thumb surgery earlier this week. The Dodgers are considering calling up Dee Gordon to replace him on the active roster.

Hanley Ramirez was diagnosed with a left hamstring injury.

The was the assumption based on the way he grabbed the back of his leg, but we now have the official word from the team. The severity of the injury isn't yet known, but it didn't look good, as he needed help from two trainers to get off the field. Get a backup plan in place in fantasy leagues.

Hanley Ramirez was removed from Friday's game against the Dodgers in the sixth inning due to an apparent injury to his left hamstring.

Ramirez was thrown out trying to advance from first to third on an A.J. Ellis single. He came away hobbling and had to be helped off the field while holding the back of his leg. After making his return from thumb surgery earlier this week, it appears that another trip to the disabled list could be in his future.

Hanley Ramirez homered and doubled in his first start back from the disabled list on Tuesday.

Ramirez wasn't happy about being left out of Monday's lineup, so he expressed his displeasure while facing Jorge De La Rosa tonight. While the Dodgers' defense takes a hit with Hanley back, his offense should more than make up for it.

Hanley Ramirez is playing shortstop and batting fifth for the Dodgers on Tuesday.

Ramirez was activated from the disabled list on Monday, but he only appeared as a pinch-hitter. Tuesday happens to be Hanley Ramirez Bobblehead Night at Dodgers Stadium, so perhaps he'll have something special in store.

Dodgers activated SS Hanley Ramirez from the 15-day disabled list.

An earlier report indicated that Ramirez wouldn't be activated until at least Tuesday, but that's obviously not the case. He's not in the lineup Monday but is expected to be in there on Tuesday. Ramirez originally was expected to be sidelined until at least mid-May, but he's made a quicker than expected recovery from a torn ligament in his right thumb.

Hanley Ramirez (thumb) is not in the Dodgers' lineup on Monday.

The Dodgers have yet to announce when Hanley will be activated, but it apparently won't be Monday. It's worth noting, though, that he's not in Triple-A Albuquerque's lineup, either, so it appears that he hasn't moved up to continue his rehab assignment. The Dodgers have also not yet made a roster move with Mark Ellis. It's possible Ramirez will take Ellis' roster spot prior to Tuesday's game.

Hanley Ramirez (thumb) went 2-for-3 in a minor league rehab game Sunday at High-A Rancho Cucamonga.

Ramirez had a double and a single and also played six innings at shortstop. He could return to Los Angeles in time for Monday's series-opener against the Rockies. The Dodgers should make a decision on that soon.
