2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bart looked to be the latest example of the difficult transition from top catching prospect to reliable fantasy contributor, as he was designated for assignment by the Giants on March 31. However, he ironically resurrected his career at the expense of Henry Davis after being acquired Pittsburgh and served as the primary backstop for long stretches of the campaign. He earned those plate appearances by showcasing his power, highlighted by a 9.4 percent barrel rate and 111.5 mph max exit velocity. While not as flashy, equally important was Bart's improved infield flyball rate (6.5 percent compared to career 13.0 percent rate) and strikeout rate (25.9 percent compared to career 32 percent). GM Ben Cherington indicated Bart will enter spring training as the favorite for the No. 1 catching job, but the Pirates are likely not ready to give up on the aforementioned Davis and will welcome back a healthy Endy Rodriguez (elbow). Regular at-bats at DH are possible if Andrew McCutchen isn't back or takes on a lesser role. If Bart finds his way into regular playing time, he has the chance to be a poor man's Cal Raleigh or Shea Langeliers, but the way this offseason progresses will provide more answers.

Serving as designated hitter
Bart is serving as the designated hitter and batting in the cleanup spot against the Mets on Monday.
ANALYSIS
With Oneil Cruz (back) sidelined for a second straight game, Andrew McCutchen will move to the outfield, which opens the DH spot for Bart while Henry Davis starts behind home plate. Bart went 6-for-12 with three RBI during the Pirates' three-game weekend series against Atlanta.

Bart had what amounted to a lost season in 2023 when he really couldn't afford one. The former top prospect lasted just one game before going on the injured list with a back issue and then made another trip to the IL in May with a groin strain. Bart was returned to Triple-A Sacramento once recovered and didn't make it back to the big leagues until September (and even then it was just for a brief four-game stint). The 27-year-old managed just a .528 OPS in his 95 plate appearances with the Giants and a .750 OPS with only six homers at Sacramento didn't inspire much confidence, either. A change of scenery might be in order for Bart after the Giants added Tom Murphy to pair with Patrick Bailey.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Activation incoming
Bart, who is on the injured list with a thumb injury, has a locker in the Pirates clubhouse and is set to be reinstated ahead of Sunday's series finale in Atlanta, reports Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old landed on the shelf with a sprained thumb in late May and is ready to rejoin the Pirates after going 6-for-17 over a six-game rehab assignment at Triple-A Indianapolis. Jason Delay no longer has a locker and is set to be demoted, so Bart should split time behind the plate with veteran Yasmani Grandal.
