What we learned in MLB this week: Rookies keeping Mets, Giants, Guardians in playoff hunt

Giants have an arms race at third base between Casey Schmitt, J.D. Davis Both Schmitt and Davis excelled as two-way players in college, and in practice, they don't shy away from showing off their pitching arms.

JUNE 1, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Three more hits Monday Schmitt (ankle) went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 14-4 win over the Pirates.

Impact Schmitt was given Sunday off to recover from a minor ankle issue. He returned to the lineup with his third multi-hit effort in his last five games, and the second three-hit game of his young career. Monday gave fans and fantasy managers a glimpse to what the Giants' infield sans Thairo Estrada (wrist) may look like versus southpaws, with Schmitt at second base, J.D. Davis at third and Brandon Crawford at shortstop, while Brett Wisely hit the bench. Schmitt may see more time at the keystone in the near term if Crawford resumes a starting role at shortstop. Schmitt is slashing .342/.351/.500 with two home runs, two stolen bases, 15 RBI and 12 runs scored through his first 20 major-league contests.

Back in lineup Monday Schmitt (ankle) is back in the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates, KXSF Sports on Twitter reports.

Impact Schmitt sat out Sunday after tweaking his ankle Saturday, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in this one. He'll be at second base Monday while Brandon Crawford handles shortstop.

MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out of lineup Sunday Schmitt (ankle) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game versus the Brewers.

Impact Schmitt received treatment on his ankle after rolling it during Saturday's game against the Brewers, but he told Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle that he's "absolutely fine" and that this is just a regular day of rest. Schmitt should be considered day-to-day at this point, and it sounds like he's available off the bench against Milwaukee for Sunday's series finale.

Getting treatment on ankle Schmitt is receiving treatment on his ankle after rolling it during Saturday's game against the Brewers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Schmitt was able to stay in the game, but it was clearly bothering the infielder for the remainder of Saturday's win for the Giants over the Brewers. He should be considered day-to-day at this stage.

Plates two, steals base Schmitt went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Thursday's 5-0 win over the Brewers.

Impact Schmitt contributed a two-run double in the Giants' four-run eighth inning. After hitting safely in nine of his first 10 major-league games, Schmitt has cooled off a bit, going 5-for-22 (.227) over his last six contests. The infielder is slashing .339/.339/.516 with two home runs, two steals, 12 RBI and nine runs scored through 62 plate appearances, and it appears the Giants are committed to getting his bat -- and perhaps more notably, his glove -- into the lineup on a near-everyday basis.

Gets first day off Tuesday Schmitt is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Twins.

Impact This is the first day off for Schmitt since he joined the Giants' major-league roster May 9. Brandon Crawford is also sitting Tuesday. Thairo Estrada will play shortstop and J.D. Davis will cover first base. Brett Wisely is at second.

MAY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Registers first career steal Schmitt went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Schmitt's shown off some power and plenty of defensive highlights, and now he's added his first major-league steal in his 12th contest. The infielder is slashing .383/.383/.596 with two home runs, nine RBI, seven runs scored and four doubles through 47 plate appearances. He's seen consistent playing time between third base and shortstop, with an occasional turn at second base. As long as his bat stays hot, there should be room for him in the lineup.

Delivers another two-hit night Schmitt went 2-for-4 with a double in Monday's 6-3 victory over the Phillies.

Impact For the first time in his brief career, Schmitt didn't have a hit Sunday. He responded with his fifth multi-hit game of the season Monday. He's only played in seven games. He's slashing a hilarious .464/.464/.821 to start his career. Even with Brandon Crawford back in the lineup, Schmitt is likely to stick around with this incredible production.

Rookie Casey Schmitt has 4 hits for historic start, Giants beat Diamondbacks 6-2

Rookie Casey Schmitt had four more hits, including a two-run homer, and Alex Cobb blanked Arizona into the eighth inning as the San Francisco Giants beat the Diamondbacks 6-2

MAY 12, 2023 • Associated Press

Finishes triple shy of cycle Schmitt went 4-for-4 with one double, one homer, three RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's 6-2 victory over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Schmitt was just getting started when he hammered a second-inning curveball 443 feet. He capped his night with a ninth-inning double to push the lead to 3-0. The rookie has torn up major-league pitching in his first three games. He has collected at least two hits in every game and is sporting a 2.000 OPS. Brandon Crawford is expected to return soon, but Schmitt can play all over the infield increasing his odds of sticking around.

Homers in debut Schmitt went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Nationals.

Impact Schmitt's first hit in the majors was a long solo shot in the fourth inning off Washington starter Patrick Corbin. Earlier Tuesday, Schmitt earned his first call-up after slashing .313/.352/.410 with a home run, 22 RBI, 19 runs scored and three stolen bases through 32 contests with Triple-A Sacramento. His surge through the minors last year has bolstered his prospect status, with his power and defense likely to help the Giants as long as he's on the roster. The natural third baseman filled in at shortstop Tuesday, and he can also play some second base, though Thairo Estrada has that position on lock in the majors.

Giants' Casey Schmitt cracks a deep home run vs. the Nationals

MAY 10, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Starts at short in MLB debut Schmitt is starting at shortstop and batting seventh in his MLB debut Tuesday against the Nationals, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Schmitt jumps right into action for the Giants after being called up Tuesday from Triple-A Sacramento, where he was slashing .313/.352/.410 through 145 plate appearances this year. With improving power and a bit of speed -- to along with a regular role in the absence of Brandon Crawford (calf) -- the 24-year-old might be worth a try in deeper fantasy formats.

MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Added to MLB roster Schmitt had his contract selected from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.

Impact Schmitt will get his first close-up with the Giants after delivering a .313/.352/.410 batting line with one home run, 22 RBI, three stolen bases and 19 runs scored through 32 games this season at the Triple-A level. The 24-year-old can play shortstop, third base and second base, offering defensive versatility and a solid bat for San Francisco. He'll likely draw most of his playing time at short as Brandon Crawford nurses a calf strain.
