Giants' Casey Schmitt: Back on bench Wednesday
Schmitt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.
After a tight back kept him out of action for four straight games, Schmitt returned to the lineup at designated hitter in Tuesday's 6-0 win and went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored. Prior to Tuesday, Schmitt had made each of his seven starts this season at first base, but the Giants likely won't have much of a need for him at that position now after Rafael Devers recently received clearance to play the field on a more regular basis. Schmitt could be ticketed for more of a utility infield role moving forward.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Logs three hits in win
Schmitt went 3-for-3 with an RBI and a walk in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Mets.
Schmitt singled in the second inning, drew a walk in the third, hit an RBI single in the fifth and added another base hit in the seventh as the Giants earned a comfortable win. The 27-year-old infielder continues to start at first base in place of Rafael Devers, who has yet to play defense due to lingering hamstring tightness. Schmitt went hitless in San Francisco's opening series against the Yankees but recorded his second multi-hit performance of the season Thursday. He's slashing .273/.360/.318 with two RBI, a double and a stolen base across 25 plate appearances in seven games.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Scratched with back tightness
Schmitt was scratched from the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets due to back tightness, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
The Giants will give Schmitt a day off to give his back a chance to heal, but it doesn't seem like he's trending toward a stint on the injured list at the moment. Jerar Encarnacion will enter the starting nine as San Francisco's first baseman and bat ninth.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Another start at first base
Schmitt will start at first base and bat seventh in Friday's game versus the Yankees.
Schmitt started at first base against lefty Max Fried in the opener and is now back at the position versus righty Cam Schlittler for the second game of the season. Meanwhile, Rafael Devers is again at designated hitter and Jerar Encarnacion is on the bench. Schmitt will likely need to get off to a hot start to remain an everyday player, but it's clear he's at least the preferred defensive option at first base for new manager Tony Vitello.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Draws start in Opening Day loss
Schmitt started at first base and went 0-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch in Wednesday's 7-0 loss to the Yankees.
The 27-year-old reached first in the second inning after being hit by Max Fried, accounting for Schmitt's lone time on base during the Opening Day rout. The San Diego State product is expected to play a utility role in 2026, though he drew the start at first base Wednesday while Rafael Devers served as the designated hitter. Schmitt appeared in a career-high 95 regular-season games in 2025, slashing .237/.305/.401 with 40 RBI, 34 runs scored and 12 long balls in 348 plate appearances.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Recovering from wrist surgery
Schmitt underwent surgery on his left wrist Tuesday and was given a rehab timeline of 8-to-10 weeks, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The 26-year-old could be limited for the start of spring training in February but should have plenty of time to get back to full health before Opening Day. Schmitt played in 95 games for the Giants last season and clubbed 12 home runs with a .237/.305/.401 slash line in 348 plate appearances. He should be in the mix to start at second base to begin 2026 but is likely better suited for more of a utility role.
