Heliot Ramos could start a rehab assignment next week as he makes his way back from a quad strain.

Ramos’s return will complicate the playing time situation in San Francisco with Bryce Eldridge starting regularly and Casey Schmitt replacing Ramos in left. The 26-year-old is one of the Giants’ better hitters, but unless someone else gets hurt between now and then, he might not be a regular after returning.
