Bart (groin) was replaced by a pinch runner in the ninth inning of Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Dodgers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bart went 3-for-4 in the contest, but exited after his ninth-inning single. Slusser adds that the injury is considered minor and it's unlikely Bart will start Thursday's afternoon game after a night game Wednesday, so he should be considered day-to-day for now. It's unclear if he'll at least be available off the bench Thursday.

Bart went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 9-5 loss to the Dodgers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bart capped a five-run fourth inning with a two-run shot to center off Los Angeles starter Tyler Anderson and added an infield single in the sixth. The 25-year-old has homered in two of his last three games and has gone deep four times in 21 games since being recalled from the minors July 6, however, in that same span he's walked only three times despite possessing a 10.4 BB% on the season. Bart is slashing .191/.289/.368 with eight home runs, 21 runs and 16 RBI in 58 games.

Bart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Austin Wynns will step in behind the plate for Bart, who went 2-for-10 with a solo home run while starting in each of the past three contests. Though Bart is currently operating as the Giants' No. 1 catcher, he could fall into more of a timeshare by the end of the week if Curt Casali (oblique) is cleared to return from the injured list.

Bart went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Bart didn't have an extra-base hit in his last 10 games since homering on July 15. He went back-to-back with Luis Gonzalez in the fourth inning, with Bart's solo shot accounting for the margin of victory. The catcher is up to seven long balls, 14 RBI, 20 runs scored, two stolen bases and three doubles through 166 plate appearances.

Bart (illness) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Bart missed one game due to an illness. He's down to a .224 batting average with 21 strikeouts in 18 contests in July. While the 25-year-old is likely to see most of the starts behind the dish, his .180/.288/.331 slash line and 43.8 percent strikeout rate remain discouraging. Curt Casali (oblique) began a rehab assignment Wednesday, and he could threaten Bart's place on the 26-man roster once he returns, as the Giants may want their catcher of the future to work on his swing at Triple-A Sacramento rather than in the big leagues.

Bart left Tuesday's game versus the Diamondbacks with an illness, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Gabe Kapler said Bart was "ghost white" and throwing up. It's unclear if the 25-year-old catcher will have to miss a game or two -- Wednesday's series finale against Arizona is a 3:40 p.m. Eastern start time. Bart likely would have sat out a day game after a night game anyway, so it's a question of if he'll be available off the bench. He went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts Tuesday.

Bart went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Bart was one of two Giants with multiple hits in the contest. He also showed off a little speed with his seventh-inning steal. Since rejoining the Giants on July 6, Bart has gone 11-for-41 (.268) with four extra-base hits and a 3:16 BB:K. The catcher is slashing .191/.303/.351 with six home runs, 13 RBI, 19 runs scored, two steals and three doubles in 51 contests, though his 42.8 percent strikeout rate remains discouragingly high.
