According to a report in the Chicago Sun-Times on Monday morning, Aramis Ramirez will miss the first three games of the Giants series in order to “tend to family matters back home in the Dominican Republic.” The report states Ramirez originally asked for four games but will rejoin the team in time for the series finale on Thursday.
The Sun-Times did not indicate what the matter was that Ramirez needed to tend to back home.
Will update if more information becomes available….
