Casey Schmitt Continues Breakout Season With Two Homers on Friday
San Francisco Giants utility man Casey Schmitt continued his breakout 2026 campaign on Friday in the 18-3 blowout win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field, going 4-for-6 at the plate with two home runs, three RBI, three runs scored, and a walk to raise his season average to .293 and his OPS to .884. The 27-year-old wasn't the only Giants player to have a monster day at the friendly confines of Wrigley, though, as both shortstop Willy Adames and third baseman Matt Chapman matched him with two-homer performances. It was quite the offensive display for the Gigantes, and just the third time in franchise history that three different players had two home runs in the same game. Schmitt has been on a heater this season and already has a career-high 15 long balls in 222 at-bats, adding 38 RBI, 31 runs scored, and five stolen bases in his 56 contests (237 plate appearances). Making him more attractive to fantasy managers is the fact that he's eligible at first, second, and third base, in addition to the outfield, in Yahoo leagues. Scoop him up if he's still available in your league.
