Davis is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Davis was behind the dish for the last two contests against the Marlins and four of the last five games, so he'll get some rest for Thursday's series opener. Brett Sullivan will catch and bat eighth for the Pirates.

Davis went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-1 win over Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Davis gave the Pirates the lead for good in the seventh inning, when he took Ranger Suarez deep to left-center field for a solo homer. Davis has gone long in back-to-back games for the first time in his career, and he has been hot at the plate as of late with a .300 batting average (12-for-40) with two doubles, three home runs and eight RBI over his last 13 games. He'll continue to see a heavy workload as the Pirates' top catcher with Joey Bart (concussion) and Endy Rodriguez (elbow) both on the injured list.

Davis went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-4 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
The backstop entered the game in the top of the second inning after Endy Rodriguez injured his elbow throwing the ball to second base during warmups, and Davis took advantage of the opportunity by lofting an Alan Rangel slider down the left-field line and just over the wall in the fourth inning. Davis' bat began to wake up in late May, and over his last 10 games he's batting .258 (8-for-31) with two doubles, two homers, four runs and six RBI. With Joey Bart (concussion) still on the shelf and Rodriguez potentially headed back to the IL as well, Davis could be in line for a heavy workload in the short term.

Davis is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
With Joey Bart (concussion) going on the injured list, Davis started behind the plate in four of the past five games, but the former might move into more of a timeshare at catcher as Endy Rodriguez becomes further removed from the index finger laceration that recently kept him on the shelf. Davis has supplied a middling .255/.326/.325 slash line since the beginning of May and could need to improve his production in order to gain more separation from Rodriguez in the battle for playing time between the two.

Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Davis will give way behind the plate to Endy Rodriguez, who will pick up his first start since being activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday. Davis started the prior three games and looks like he could serve as the team's top option behind the plate while Joey Bart (concussion) is on the 7-day injured list. Davis wrapped up May with a .237/.341/.342 slash line and a 22.2 percent strikeout rate over 46 plate appearances on the month.

Davis went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored Wednesday against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Davis homered Tuesday after entering the game following Joey Bart's (concussion) departure and slugged a two-run home run. He then started Wednesday and delivered an RBI single in the second inning while also recording his third multi-hit performance in his last five appearances. Davis could get more consistent run in the absence of Bart, though Endy Rodriguez is back from the injured list.

Davis went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 9-6 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Davis is 4-for-9 with three RBI over his last four contests. The 25-year-old catcher has mostly seen limited playing time this season, batting .204 with a .638 OPS, two homers, six RBI and six runs scored across 56 plate appearances. He hadn't logged an extra-base hit since his first homer of the year, which was April 16 versus the Nationals.

Davis went 2-for-2 with an RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Davis continues getting only sporadic playing time, but he does have at least one hit in each of his last three starts. He played a key role in Wednesday's win, driving in a run with a single in the fourth inning. Davis also applied a key tag at home plate to end the sixth frames to preserve a 2-1 lead for the Pirates. Joey Bart is likely to continue to get the majority of playing time behind the plate, but Davis is showing modest signs of potential.

Davis went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI on Tuesday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Davis has drawn consecutive starts for the first time since mid-April, with Joey Bart serving as designated hitter in the absence of Oneil Cruz (back). It may be unfair to judge Davis fully based on his sporadic playing time, but his ugly sample in the majors has continued in 2025 as he is hitting only .135/.220/.216 across 42 plate appearances. The lone positive is that he's striking out just 16.7 percent of the time, nearly half of his 29.2 percent rate in 415 big-league plate appearances.
