Giants Designate Joey Bart for Assignment, Clearing Way for Daulton Jefferies

The move ends Bart's challenging tenure with the Giants, opening a roster spot for pitcher Daulton Jefferies.

Joey Bart, once seen as Buster Posey's successor, has been designated for assignment by the San Francisco Giants to make room for pitcher Daulton Jefferies.
Bart struggled in the majors, hitting .219 over four seasons, and fell behind Patrick Bailey and Tom Murphy on the catching depth chart.
The move marks the end of Bart's tenure with the Giants, who had high hopes for him after selecting him with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft.
Bart is now a prime candidate for a change of scenery, with potential to be claimed off waivers if not traded within the next week.
Daulton Jefferies returns to major league action after undergoing thoracic outlet surgery and his second Tommy John procedure.
