Casey Schmitt sitting Friday for Giants
San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt is not in the lineup on Friday against right-hander Michael Wacha and the San Diego Padres.
The Giants activated Brandon Crawford (forearm) from the 10-day injured list on Friday, so Schmitt will likely see less playing time moving forward. Crawford is replacing Schmitt at shortstop on Friday and hitting eighth.
Per numberFire's MLB Heat Map, the Giants' implied total is 3.80, fifth-lowest on the board, and the game total is 8.0. Wacha has a middling 4.24 xERA hiding behind a 2.84 ERA this season. His 22.0% strikeout rate is also underwhelming, but Wacha limits hard hits (34.5%).
