San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart (groin) was pulled from the game early on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers with slight groin tightness. Bart went 3-for-4 in the game before departing, and fantasy managers won't have him in the lineup for Thursday's game against left-hander Clayton Kershaw. After the 3-for-4 performance, Bart is now hitting .205/.299/.378 with eight long balls, 16 RBI, 21 runs scored and two stolen bases in 156 at-bats for San Francisco. With the 25-year-old ticketed for a spot on the bench on Thursday, Austin Wynns should be behind the plate for the Giants to catch right-handed starter Jakob Junis.

San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart (illness) was removed from Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks due to an illness. According to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic, Bart was throwing up during the game. He made it through the majority of the game, going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts before Austin Wynns came in to replace him behind the plate. The 25-year-old has appeared in a career-high 53 games in the majors this year, but he's been unable to find consistency at the plate. He owns a .185/.295/.341 slash line to go along with six home runs, 13 RBI and 19 runs.

San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart has been recalled to the big league roster on Wednesday. The 25-year-old is excited to be back with the Giants after a recent stint in the minors. Bart was hitting .156/.296/.300 with four homers, seven RBI through 108 plate appearances with the Giants this season. He should get fairly regular playing time with Curt Casali (oblique) sidelined. Bart isn't the ideal fantasy option, but could be worth an add for fantasy managers in desperate need of production at the catcher spot.

The San Francisco Giants optioned catcher Joey Bart to Triple-A Sacramento after their game on Tuesday against the Colorado Rockies. Bart will head back to the farm to work on his swing after going 14-for-90 (.156) with four home runs, seven RBI, 12 runs scored and a stolen base in 36 games to begin his third season in the major leagues. Bart will eventually be back in San Francisco, but for now, Curt Casali will be the team's primary backstop. Austin Wynns, who the team acquired in a trade from the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday, will replace Bart on the active roster and back up Casali.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt and catcher Joey Bart will both be on the bench at the start of their team's Friday night contest against the San Diego Padres. Belt will be replaced at first base by Wilmer Flores while Curt Casali will be behind the plate for the series opener against their divisional rivals. Both appear to be just regular days of rest for the respective Giants.

San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart is back in the lineup on Wednesday for a matchup with the Colorado Rockies. Bart previously got the day off on Tuesday with Curt Casali starting behind the plate, but returns for the series finale between the two teams. He's hitting eighth against Colorado left-hander Kyle Freeland. The 25-year-old is batting .185 with a .338 on-base percentage, four home runs, and a stolen base in 80 plate appearances this season. He could be worth a look as a streaming option in leagues where on-base percentage is part of the scoring.

San Francisco Giants catcher Joey Bart (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. The young catcher has been hitting fairly well through seven games with two home runs and four runs knocked in. However, the Giants will give him a break for Sunday's contest. Curt Casali will draw the start behind the plate and bat ninth versus righty Aaron Civale. There isn't much upside in Casali's bat, but Bart is someone worth rostering in most fantasy formats.
