Giants place Casey Schmitt on IL, call up Tyler Fitzgerald
Briefly

The San Francisco Giants announced that infielder Casey Schmitt has been placed on the 10-Day Injured List, retroactive to June 27, due to an injury. Tyler Fitzgerald has been called up from AAA Sacramento to take his place. Schmitt had been performing well, but the injury isn't severe, so he is expected to return soon. Fitzgerald, who had been struggling at the plate, will start at second base as the Giants face the Diamondbacks. The team's lineup adjustments might be temporary, as players like Matt Chapman are nearing their return to health.
We're seeing a lot of movement due to injuries at this point in the season, and Casey Schmitt's placement on the IL creates an immediate need for Tyler Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald's recent struggles have been concerning, and this call-up comes at a critical time as he tries to shake off a slump that has lasted for weeks.
