Schmitt said he didn't have any issues swinging, and he felt good enough to begin taking batting practice as well. The 26-year-old infielder landed on the injured list Monday due to inflammation in his left hand, though he seems to be progressing quickly enough to have a chance to return when eligible next Monday.

The team announced on Monday afternoon that they placed infielder Casey Schmitt on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to June 27) with left hand inflammation. In a corresponding move, the Giants recalled infielder Tyler Fitzgerald from Triple-A Sacramento a week after optioning him.
