Scouting report
Even in a year without minor league performance to support it, scouts still think Ramos' feel to hit and general offensive comfortability are ahead of that of the other physical, teenage hitters in this system. He is also the most reliable defensive infielder of this group and I consider him likely to stay at third base, though it's worth noting that there's growing variability on both sides of that prediction, as the Sox have experimented with him at second, while one scout who saw him in the Fall think teenagers this size almost always move to first base or the outfield corners. Indeed, for his age, Ramos is already a sizable guy. Perhaps tricked by the way his fire engine red batting gloves stood out against Chicago's black and gray instructs threads, I thought he had the most explosive hands of that group, and I like how bold his stride is, even though some of his swings are reckless. Ultimately, he's a risky corner prospect a long way from the big leagues. (Fall Instructional League)
