Dodgers' Manny Ramirez headed for disabled list By Dylan Hernandez July 2, 2010 | 11:01 p.m. Ramirez, who has a strained hamstring in his right leg, is out of the lineup and might not be available even to pinch-hit this weekend. Reporting from Phoenix — Manny Ramirez will be placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right hamstring, according to three baseball sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the move wasn't official yet. Ramirez will be replaced on the active roster by Xavier Paul, who will be recalled from triple-A Albuquerque. Ramirez was out of the lineup for the second consecutive day on Friday and started the day listed as day to day. Before the game, Manager Joe Torre said the Dodgers remained uncertain whether they would put him on the disabled list because of a strained right hamstring. Ramirez had earlier reported an improvement in his condition, prompting Torre to say: "We have to figure out to what degree it will get better and what does that get us. Is he going to be a player by Tuesday? Or is he going to be a pinch-hitter by Monday or Tuesday? "I think we have to decide if that's worth playing a man short." Paul also replaced Ramirez on the active roster when Ramirez was put on the disabled list April 23. Ramirez, who was hitting .415 when he was hurt in April, slumped after being activated May 8, something hitting coach Don Mattingly blamed on a loss of timing. Mattingly said he had seen that timing return in recent weeks. Ramirez has hit .460 with three home runs and 15 runs batted in over his last 15 games. http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-dodgers-fyi-20100703,0,5002424.story --
