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.

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.

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.

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.

Promotion likely Schmitt is likely to be called up from Triple-A Sacramento by the Giants prior to Tuesday's game versus the Nationals, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Schmitt, 24, has put together a .313/.352/.410 batting line with one home run and three stolen bases in 32 games with Sacramento this season. He's played plenty of shortstop and third base with Sacramento and recently added second base to the mix, as well. Schmitt could see fairly regular action for the Giants while bouncing around the infield.
MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Power outage at Triple-A Schmitt has a .326/.340/.391 slash line with zero home runs, zero steals and a 22:3 K:BB in 21 games with Triple-A Sacramento.
Impact Sacramento suppresses offense more than any park in the Pacific Coast League, and while Schmitt hasn't blasted a home run yet, his 9.7 percent soft-hit rate and 5.9 percent infield-flyball rate suggest he is usually getting good wood on the ball. The 24-year-old infielder is known as much for his glove as his bat and has split time at shortstop (12 starts) and third base (eight starts). A 2023 debut could be in the cards if he ups his walks and either cuts his strikeouts and/or ups his power output.
