Rotowire
Ramos went 3-for-5 with two home runs, a triple, three total runs and five total RBI in a 10-1 win against the Blue Jays on Monday.
Ramos batted leadoff for the second time in San Francisco's past three games and set the tone for a big day by his team's offense. He led off the bottom of the first inning with a triple that became a run when Andres Gimenez threw the ball into the dugout. Ramos then belted a three-run homer in the sixth inning before cranking a 444-foot solo shot in the eighth. It was the outfielder's first career multi-homer game, and the five RBI were a career-best single-game mark.

Giants' Heliot Ramos: Expected back Sunday, moving to RF
Rotowire
Ramos (quadriceps) is expected to be activated from the 10-day IL on Sunday, and he's likely to see more playing time in right field, Justice delos Santos of The Mercury News reports.
Ramos last saw action for San Francisco on May 15 before being placed on the IL due to a right quad strain the following day. The 26-year-old kicked off a rehab assignment June 17 and has gone 9-for-26 with one home run, three doubles and two RBI over seven games. Since Ramos has been sidelined, Bryce Eldridge has thrived as the Giants' designated hitter while Casey Schmitt has played well while starting in left field. With that in mind, Schmitt is set to retain his role in that position, which will likely push Ramos to right field and move Jung Hoo Lee from right to center. That setup should remain consistent until Harrison Bader (foot), who doesn't have a clear timetable for a return, per delos Santos, is able to get back on the field.
