Casey Schmitt is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for hitters heading into Week 10 (2023). Target Schmitt as a free agent shortstop or third baseman on the waiver wire.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Casey Schmitt is somehow less rostered today than when this column came out last week, despite posting three more multi-hit games. The 24-year-old prospect continues to mash for the Giants as he's batting .343 and slugging .507 through his first 17 games. Oddly, Schmitt is yet to draw a walk, but that doesn't mean he has poor plate discipline, as his K-rate remains excellent at 17.9%.
“He’s not the easiest guy to take out of the lineup right now. He’s doing a really nice job at shortstop."

Schmitt is hitting for average and power, has a strong minor league track record, and is hitting the ball extremely hard, as evidenced by a sturdy .399 xwOBA on contact. He should be the top priority to add if you need a shortstop (or third baseman), and he is available.
