4/07/24 Joey Bart settling in with Pirates ahead of series finale vs. O's. Joey Bart is off to a fantastic start with the Pirates, and the power-hitting catcher hopes to further impress his new bosses when Pittsburgh hosts the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday afternoon for the rubber match of a three-game series. Bart slammed a two-run homer on Saturday in his first at-bat since he was acquired from the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. The Giants selected Bart in the first round (second overall) of the 2018 MLB Draft with the hopes that he'd eventually take over for Buster Posey, but Bart didn't develop to the satisfaction of the organization, and he was designated for assignment last Sunday.

3/28/24 Melvin breaks down Giants' surprising Opening Day roster choices. Joey Bart begins the 2024 MLB season on the Giants' Opening Day roster, but Luis Matos and Marco Luciano will be start the year at Triple-A, decisions Bob Melvin explained Thursday.

3/28/24 SF Giants' Opening Day roster include Joey Bart, but not Marco Luciano. Joey Bart's last day in the Giants' organization hasn't arrived yet. Finalizing their Opening Day roster Thursday morning, the Giants opted to carry three catchers, including the former second overall pick. While the team won't carry three catchers all season, Bart cannot be sent to the minors without passing through waivers and the move potentially increases the chances he goes unclaimed. By using one of the 26 roster spots on Bart, the Giants will open the season with only 12 pitchers.

10/14/23 Player Review: Joey Bart. The long and winding road of Joey Bart has come to an end. Bart looked hungry. Curt Casali went on the IL and Bart came up from Triple-A ready to meet his moment. Was he finally started to blossom, and maybe possibly be ready to take the starting role and navigate the San Francisco Giants tanker in and out of the Bay each night?

8/22/23 Buying or Selling 2023 MLB Rookies as Future All-Stars. After several years of waiting for Joey Bart to become the next Buster Posey, Giants fans finally have Bailey to fill that void. As a catcher, though, his All-Star potential is somewhat at the mercy of the rest of the league.

They lost Friday's series opener 3-2 , so they'll have to sweep the weekend games to win the series. That, it goes without saying, starts with this game. Quick roster note: the Giants reinstated and optioned Joey Bart before the game. The Giants are using right-handed pitcher John Brebbia as an opener. In 26 appearances this year, Brebbia is 2-0 with a 3.65 ERA, a 2.63 FIP, and 33 strikeouts to eight walks in 24.2 innings. He's been an opener five times this year, and given up five hits, two walks, and one run in five innings, with seven strikeouts. I would
