AJ Ramos: Brings end to career
AJ Ramos (shoulder) announced Wednesday via his personal Twitter account that he has elected to retire from professional baseball.Ramos' decision to step away from baseball comes one day after the Angels released him from his minor-league deal with the club. A 2016 All-Star selection for the Marlins, Ramos has been limited to seven appearances at the big-league level across the past three seasons while he's struggled to return to form following June 2018 surgery to repair a torn labrum. He was set to miss the entire 2022 season after suffering a torn capsule in his right shoulder during a March 27 Cactus League appearance, and the 35-year-old wasn't eager to embark on another arduous rehab. He'll retire with a lifetime 3.04 ERA and 99 saves across stops with the Marlins, Mets, Rockies and Angels.

AJ Ramos: Back on open market
The Angels released AJ Ramos (shoulder) on Tuesday.Ramos suffered a torn capsule in his right shoulder last month and won't be available to pitch in 2022, so his release doesn't come as a major surprise. Given that he's 35 years old and has made only seven relief appearances in the majors since undergoing surgery in June 2018 to address a torn labrum, Ramos' playing days could be over.

Angels' AJ Ramos: Out for season with shoulder injury
The Los Angeles Angels announced Tuesday that AJ Ramos suffered a torn capsule in his throwing shoulder and will miss the entire 2022 season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.Ramos will presumably need surgery to address the injury, which could prove to be a career-ender. The 35-year-old, who was attending camp as a non-roster invitee, has made just seven relief appearances in the majors over the past three years. The one-time All-Star reliever had already struggled to return to form since undergoing surgery in June 2018 to address a torn labrum, and the fact that he's dealing with yet another significant shoulder injury doesn't bode well for his chances of re-emerging as an MLB-caliber bullpen arm in the latter half of his thirties.

Angels' AJ Ramos: Ready if called upon
AJ Ramos has been throwing at the Los Angeles Angels' alternate training site and would be "close to ready" if summoned to the big club, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.Ramos inked a big-league deal with the Angels in late March, so he didn't have time to fully ramp up during spring training. However, the right-hander has been working his arm into shape at the alternate site and now appears to be at least close to capable of throwing in big-league games. Ramos has pitched a mere 2.2 big-league innings since 2018, so it's unclear where he ranks on the organization's reliever depth chart.
