Giants Put Heliot Ramos on 10-Day IL With Right Quad Strain

The setback pushes San Francisco to patch left field with recalls plus position switches for at least the next few weeks.

Overview

  • San Francisco placed left fielder Heliot Ramos on the 10-day injured list Saturday after an MRI on his right quadriceps confirmed a strain.
  • Ramos was hurt during Friday’s loss to the Athletics in West Sacramento while trying to make a play in left field.
  • Manager Tony Vitello said Ramos will be out at least a couple of weeks and described the injury as painful.
  • The Giants recalled outfielder Will Brennan, activated reliever Erik Miller from the injured list, and optioned pitcher Tristan Beck to Triple-A Sacramento.
  • Drew Gilbert handled left field Saturday after infielder Casey Schmitt finished Friday’s game there in his first professional outfield appearance, removing a steady bat from a lineup where Ramos had hit .267 with four homers and 20 RBIs for an 18-27 club.
