 At 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m) and 150 pounds (68 kg), Torre once compared Ramírez's appearance to a thermometer. Ramírez primarily throws a fastball with slight lateral movement that averages 91 miles per hour (146 km / h). He also has two offspeed pitches: a standard changeup, and a low 80s circle changeup, his primary strikeout pitch, that has similar movement to a palmball, and is particularly effective against left-handed batters. The changeup, Bruney said, gave the fastball the appearance of being as fast as 98 miles per hour (158 km / h). He developed a low 80s slider into his repertoire. His delivery was unusual, making it difficult to pick up the ball out of his hand.
