Quick Glance: SF Giants Part Ways with Joey Bart
- Joey Bart, the second overall selection in the 2018 draft, was designated for assignment by the San Francisco Giants on Sunday to make room for right-hander Daulton Jefferies, who was called up for the series finale against the Padres.
- Bart, 27, is eligible to be traded for the next week, but if the Giants cannot find a partner, he would be placed on unconditional release waivers, where he is almost certain to be claimed and added to another team’s major-league roster as he has no options left and can’t be sent to the minors without being placed on waivers again.
- A change of scenery could benefit Bart, who never quite escaped from Posey’s shadow. Many expressed that Bart will get a better opportunity than the one he was given here.
- Daulton Jefferies, who made his first major-league start since May 18, 2022, completed a long journey back by successfully finishing his rehab after thoracic outlet surgery and his second Tommy John procedure.
