Giants place Jorge Soler on 10-day IL, recall Heliot Ramos from Triple-A – NBC Sports Bay Area & California

The Giants made two significant roster changes ahead of Wednesday’s game against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field.

San Francisco placed designated hitter Jorge Soler on the 10-day injured list with a strained right shoulder and recalled outfielder Heliot Ramos from Triple-A Sacramento.

The struggling Soler missed the Giants’ previous three games and is posting a .202/.294/.361 batting average with five homers and eight RBIs in 136 plate appearances this season.

Ramos, meanwhile, is off to a hot start in Triple-A, hitting .296/.388/.565 with eight home runs and 21 RBIs in 134 plate appearances.

Ramos, 24, will slide into Soler’s designated hitter spot and bat seventh for the Giants on Wednesday against the Rockies.

It remains to be seen exactly how long Soler will be out, but Ramos should get a much-deserved extended look at the big league level.
