He wasn"t a very imposing threat - 5"10", 180 pounds - but he was still talented. In 1975, Ramirez was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 23rd round (535th overall). He opted not to sign.
Three years later, he was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 10th round (254th), but still did not sign.
One year later, he was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 5th round (123rd). Finally, he signed a contract.
His professional career started one year later, in 1979 in the FSL. Even though his record in his first season was less than perfect (3-9), his European Research Area of 2.61 didn"t show lieutenant He did well enough to earn a promotion to Associate of Arts, where he went 16-8 with a 2.98 European Research Area in 29 games the next season.
In 1981, Allan Ramirez suffered his first subpar season.
With American Automobile Association Rochester, he had a 4.17 European Research Area in 8 games. Ramirez spent some time in A-ball that year too, going 0-1 with a 2.77 European Research Area. On June 8, 1983 - at the age of 26 - he made his Major League debut with the Baltimore Orioles. From that date to September 13, 1983, he would pitch fairly well.
Even though he walked 30 and struck out only 20, his European Research Area was a fair 3.47.
His defense was also flawless - not a single error in 11 games. Even after an impressive rookie season though, that was the last of Ramirez"s major league baseball career.
Ramirez currently resides in Victoria, Texas.
