Ramirez was traded by the Mets to the Orioles in exchange for cash considerations Thursday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Ramirez earned a spot on the Mets' Opening Day roster, but he allowed seven earned runs across his first 5.1 innings of the season. He was designated for assignment as a result, but he'll now get the chance to earn a low-leverage role in the Orioles' bullpen.

Mets' Yohan Ramirez: Suspension reduced to two games
Rotowire
Ramirez's suspension was reduced from three games to two games Monday following an appeal, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Ramirez was given the suspension for intentionally throwing a pitch at Rhys Hoskins in Saturday's loss to the Brewers. The reliever will begin serving the suspension in Monday's series opener with the Tigers.
Ramirez received a three-game suspension Sunday for throwing intentionally at Rhys Hoskins on Saturday, but the right-hander will remain available as he appeals the ban, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
The suspension hardly comes as a surprise after Ramirez was ejected Saturday for throwing behind Hoskins, which stemmed from a benches-clearing incident Friday after Hoskins slid late into Jeff McNeil at second base. Ramirez will be available to pitch until the appeals process plays out.

Mets' Yohan Ramirez: Secures spot on 26-man roster
Rotowire
Ramirez will begin the season in the Mets' bullpen, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.
After a strong spring, the 28-year-old claimed the last spot in the bullpen when Sean Reid-Foley (shoulder) was placed on the IL to begin the season. The Mets will be Ramirez's fifth big-league team in five seasons, and his 4.40 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 67:37 K:BB over 75.2 innings since 2022 don't suggest he's a candidate for high-leverage work.

Mets' Yohan Ramirez: Could make Opening Day roster
Rotowire
Ramirez's impressive spring has him in the running for the final spot in the Mets' Opening Day bullpen, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Picked up from the White Sox in December, Ramirez has posted a 0.00 ERA over eight Grapefruit League innings with an 8:1 K:BB, and his power sinker has caught the attention of scouts. The 28-year-old right-hander's main competition for the last spot in the bullpen appears to be Michael Tonkin, but both pitchers could survive final cuts if Sean Red-Foley (arm) needs an IL stint to begin the season. Phil Bickford and Shintaro Fujinami are also in the mix for those relief jobs, but the latter has minor-league options remaining and the former hasn't been as sharp in camp as either Ramirez or Tonkin.

Mets' Yohan Ramirez: Traded to Mets
Rotowire
The Mets acquired Ramirez from the White Sox on Monday in exchange for cash considerations.

The 28-year-old holds a 3.99 ERA and 128:69 K:BB across 124 innings over parts of four seasons in the majors. Ramirez does not have options remaining, so he'll need to make the Mets' Opening Day roster or risk going through the waiver process again.

The White Sox claimed Ramirez off waivers from the Pirates on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Pirates' Yohan Ramirez: DFA'd by Pittsburgh
Rotowire
The Pirates designated Ramirez for assignment Friday.
With Max Kranick (elbow) getting activated from the 60-day injured list Friday, Ramirez will lose his spot on the 40-man roster. The 28-year-old righty put up a 3.67 ERA and 1.40 WHIP alongside a 31:14 K:BB through 34.1 frames with the Pirates this season, so there is a decent chance he gets claimed off waivers.
