In an interview with the Mexican newspaper El Debate, Héctor Ley, president of the Tomateros de Culiacán, confirmed the arrival to the best team of the Mexican League to the Nicaraguan Juan Carlos Ramírez, becoming the fourth pinolero in winter leagues (Carlos Teller, Leonardo Crawford and Kevin Gadea).
The journalist Carlos Medina asked the leader directly: “As for established players, the absence of JC Ramírez, who had established himself in the Tomateros rotation, is strange. Is it contemplated to bring him?” To which the manager replied: “Yes, it is contemplated, that is for sure. When the season is closer, we begin to have talks with each of our players and we begin to discuss with them the date on which they can report, this in order to cover the previous part of their arrival, “he explained.

This year has been new for Ramírez, as he decided to venture to the Taiwan Professional League with the Fubon Guardians where he had 4-5 in wins and losses and 3.43 in ERA. Later, he returned to Mexico to join the Tijuana Bulls in the final stretch and out of three regular season games he won two with a 3.68 ERA, but in the playoffs his arm was ripped off with a clean hit.
After resting for several weeks and returning to the United States (place of residence), Ramírez plans to rescue his numbers and impact again with Culiacán, a site that has welcomed him after being released by Anaheim and ending his stage in the Major Leagues.
