Joey Bart

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. Read Past Outlooks
