Giants Prospect Joey Bart Sent Down to Triple-A

Bart, once seen as Buster Posey's replacement, struggled in his first extended stint in the majors this season.
Bart hit .215 with 112 strikeouts in 97 games for the Giants this year.
The Giants activated Bart from the injured list but optioned him to Triple-A Sacramento.
The move signals the Giants view switch-hitting prospect Patrick Bailey as their catcher of the future.
Bart will work to improve in Triple-A with the hopes of earning another call-up to the majors.
