In this March 10, 2012, photo, Oakland Athletics' Manny Ramirez looks on from the dugout during a spring training baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds in Phoenix. Suspended slugger Ramirez is scheduled to begin a 10-game minor league stint with Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, May 19, in Albuquerque, N.M. Barring rainouts, the designated hitter and outfielder is eligible to be activated by the Athletics from his 50-game suspension on May 30--his 40th birthday--for the finale of a weekend series at Minnesota.
