Manager Gabe Kapler said Bailey might have a concussion after colliding with Jeimer Candelario during Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey was reportedly feeling lightheaded after Candelario slid into him during the seventh inning. If Bailey does indeed have a concussion, he will be forced to miss at least seven days, and Blake Sabol will be next in line to start behind the plate for San Francisco. For now, Bailey should be considered day-to-day.

Bailey went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey's hit safely in four straight games, and he has an extra-base hit in his last three contests. The catcher is batting .268 (19-for-71) in August, but he's hit just two homers over 23 games this month. The rookie is at a .260/.311/.411 slash line, seven long balls, 45 RBI, 25 runs scored and a stolen base through 78 contests overall while providing strong defense behind the plate.

Bailey is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest against Atlanta, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Atlanta is starting Spencer Strider, so Bailey probably didn't put up too much of a fight when he was told he was getting a day off. Blake Sabol will do the catching for Logan Webb.

Bailey went 2-for-5 with a walk-off two-run homer in Sunday's extra-inning win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
The Giants were down to their final out after they had been winning all game before allowing the Rangers to push it to an extra inning. Bailey timed up an inside fastball from Will Smith perfectly and sent a laser to left field that just cleared the wall. It was his first home run since June 30, and he's now posted nine hits over his last 21 at-bats. Bailey had a rough month of July but has certainly turned things around this month and is now slashing .323/.447/.452 with seven RBI, four runs and a 7:7 BB:K through 38 plate appearances in August.

Bailey went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, three RBI and a run scored in Monday's 8-3 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bailey opened the scoring with an RBI single in the fourth inning and added a two-run double in the ninth to put the Giants ahead for good. This was his fourth multi-hit effort in his last seven games, a span in which he's gone 7-for-21 (.333). The rookie catcher continues to impress defensively while holding his own with a .262/.307/.414 slash line, five home runs, 35 RBI, 19 runs scored, 15 doubles and a stolen base through 61 contests this season.
