With shortstop Nick Ahmed going on the injured list, San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt returns to the team, Friday, May 10, 2024, against the Cincinnati Reds at Oracle Park in San Francisco, Calif. SAN FRANCISCO — An ill-timed shave meant Casey Schmitt arrived in the heavily mustachioed home clubhouse at Oracle Park lacking the facial hair to match most of his teammates. It was another recent addition to his face that could be more meaningful.
“I was fine with how it was,” Schmitt said, “but I wanted that extra thing to help me out even more.” Schmitt had been playing all over the infield for the River Cats, mostly ceding shortstop to Luciano except once or so a week, and offers Melvin more positional flexibility in the interim. More immediately, catcher Patrick Bailey is “on target” to be activated from concussion protocol when he is eligible Saturday, Melvin said.After suffering two concussions in the span of seven months, Bailey decided to switch up catchers masks, trading in his traditional two-piece model that strapped over a protective helmet for a hockey-style mask with “enforced padding,” according to Melvin.
