Shifts to 60-day IL The Giants transferred Schmitt (knee) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.

Impact The move opens up a spot on the 26-man roster for Yunior Marte, who will start in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks. Schmitt underwent surgery in late July to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. He's technically eligible to return in the last days of the regular season, but he'll likely be sidelined for the rest of the year given that the Giants are unlikely to qualify for the postseason.

Undergoes surgery Schmitt underwent a debridement of his lateral meniscus Friday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact The Giants said that Schmitt could be ready to return in roughly 6-to-8 weeks, but with San Francisco sitting at 47-62 -- well out of contention for a playoff spot -- the team likely won't be in any rush to bring him back and could opt to keep him out until 2027. Either way, he's expected to have a normal offseason and will be ready for the start of spring training.

Likely done for season Giants manager Tony Vitello said Wednesday that Schmitt will require surgery for the torn meniscus in his left knee and will "more than likely" miss the rest of the season, Tristi...

Impact Vitello said a date hasn't been set for when Schmitt will have surgery, though the 27-year-old is slated to have his procedure performed "as soon as possible." A formal recovery timeline for Schmitt should be provided when the operation is completed, as it's not yet known whether he'll require a meniscectomy or a full meniscus repair. Schmitt would likely face a 3-to-6-week recovery if he requires the former procedure, while a full repair often entails a 4-to-6-month timeline. In any case, the 45-62 Giants are well out of the mix for a playoff spot, so Schmitt doesn't look like he'll be rushed back into action even if he gets a meniscectomy and hits no snags in the rehab process. Schmitt had been in the midst of a breakout campaign before suffering the knee injury, slashing .271/.301/.483 with 21 home runs, nine stolen bases, 55 RBI and 47 runs across 409 plate appearances while making starts at all four infield spots in addition to left field.

Giants put infielder Casey Schmitt on 10-day injured list with torn meniscus in left knee

San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a torn meniscus in his left knee

JULY 29 • Associated Press

Suffered torn meniscus The Giants placed Schmitt on the 10-day injured list with a left knee meniscus tear.

Impact Schmitt will miss some time, but the exact nature of the tear is yet to be revealed. The 27-year-old faces the possibility of being shut down for the season, even if the severity of the tear is on the lesser side of the possibilities. In a corresponding move, the Giants selected Osleivis Basabe from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.

Nursing knee discomfort Schmitt left Monday's game against the Brewers due to left knee discomfort and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Schmitt appeared to tweak his knee on a hard turn around first base during Monday's series opener and was forced to come out of the game. Manager Tony Vitello stated after the matchup that he expects Schmitt to miss some time, indicating that a trip to the injured list is likely. The club should have a formal diagnosis following Tuesday's scans, at which point a timetable for the 27-year-old's return could become more clear.

Exits with lower-body injury Schmitt left Monday's game against the Brewers due to an apparent lower-body injury, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Schmitt looped a single into right field in the bottom of the second inning, but he looked to twist either his left knee or left ankle while putting on the brakes around first base. Christian Koss entered the game to pinch run for Schmitt, who wasn't able to put much weight on his left leg on his way off the diamond. The club should have another update on Schmitt's injury after sending him for further evaluation.

Launches another homer Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Angels.

Impact Schmitt homered for the second game in a row and for the fifth time across 18 contests in July. He's batting just .230 (17-for-74) this month, but he's supplied 11 RBI. Schmitt also has a share of the Giants' lead for homers with 21, and he's batting .272 with a .792 OPS, 54 RBI, 46 runs scored, 17 doubles, one triple and nine stolen bases over 95 contests.

Belts homer No. 20 Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Royals.

Impact The infielder took Steven Cruz deep with two outs in the ninth inning, but the Giants couldn't find an equalizer afterward. Schmitt is up to 20 homers on the season, including four in 17 contests in July, but his .229/.280/.429 slash line on the month is less appealing.

Registers ninth steal Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Mariners.

Impact Schmitt is hitting .254 (15-for-59) with three home runs, seven RBI and two steals over 14 contests in July. The utility man is now batting .278 with a .795 OPS, 19 home runs, nine steals, 50 RBI and 44 runs scored over 91 contests. He'll volume his way to career highs in most areas this season, though he's coupled that with a better ability to put the ball in play -- he's posted a meager 2.6 percent walk rate, but his 19.2 percent strikeout rate is notably improved compared to previous years.
