Ramirez (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Sunday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Ramirez took batting practice Saturday and apparently felt well afterward. Topkin notes that Ramirez could be back within the next week. Ramirez has filled several roles with the Rays this season -- he's played at first base, in the outfield and at designated hitter -- and that is likely to continue upon his return.
