Sep 16, 2023
On bench Saturday afternoon
Bailey will hit the bench for the first portion of Saturday's doubleheader against Colorado, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Blake Sabol will start behind the plate in the afternoon contest, but Bailey should return to the lineup for the nightcap. Bailey hit .329/.356/.571 in his first 20 MLB games this season, but he's since hit a modest .223/.289/.327 across 66 contests.
Sep 13, 2023
Back from concussion IL
Bailey was activated from the 7-day concussion injured list Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
His concussion symptoms subsided, Bailey has rejoined the Giants following a minimum absence and will do his best to aid the club in their quest for a playoff spot. Joey Bart was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.
Sep 12, 2023
Expected back Wednesday
Bailey (head) said he expects to be activated from the 7-day concussion injured list Wednesday, Curtis Pashelka of the San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was diagnosed with a mild concussion following a home-plate collision with Jeimer Candelario last Tuesday. Joey Bart and Blake Sabol have been sharing starts at catcher for the Giants during Bailey's one-week absence.
Sep 6, 2023
Goes on concussion injured list
Bailey was placed on the 7-day concussion injured list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Bailey suffered the concussion during Tuesday's loss to the Cubs when he was involved in a collision at the plate with Jeimer Candelario. He will be eligible to return next week, but as is the case anytime a concussion is involved, it's difficult to project when Bailey might be ready. Blake Sabol and Joey Bart will handle the catching duties for the Giants while Bailey is sidelined.
Sep 6, 2023
Could land on concussion IL
Bailey could be placed on the 7-day concussion injured list prior to Wednesday's game against the Cubs, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey collided with Jeimer Candelario during Tuesday's loss to the Cubs and reported lightheadedness afterward. Joey Bart was spotted in the Giants' clubhouse ahead of Wednesday's contest, so it would appear he's taking Bailey's roster spot.
Sep 5, 2023
May have concussion
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.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was reportedly feeling lightheaded after Candelario slid into him during the seventh inning. If he 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.
Sep 5, 2023
Takes seat Tuesday
Bailey is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Cubs.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will grab a breather after making four straight starts behind the plate for the Giants. Blake Sabol is catching and batting fifth Tuesday versus the Cubs and right-hander Kyle Hendricks.
Aug 31, 2023
Takes seat Thursday
Bailey is out of the lineup Thursday versus the Padres.
ANALYSIS
Blake Sabol will catch and bat eighth in the Giants' series opener at San Diego after Bailey drew five straight starts behind the plate. He went 5-for-18 (.278) with one homer and six RBI during that five-game stretch.
Aug 30, 2023
Goes yard in win
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.
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.
Aug 25, 2023
Taking seat Friday
Bailey is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest against Atlanta, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
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.
Aug 19, 2023
Sitting Saturday
Bailey isn't in the Giants' lineup Saturday against Atlanta, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will catch a break Saturday after going 5-for-19 with a homer and four RBI across his last five games. Blake Sabol will fill in behind the dish and bat seventh in Bailey's place.
Aug 16, 2023
Getting breather Wednesday
Bailey is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against the Rays.
ANALYSIS
It's a day game after a night game, so Bailey will get an opportunity to rest. Blake Sabol will do the catching for opener Ryan Walker and a slew of relievers.
Aug 14, 2023
Supplies walk off home run
Bailey went 2-for-5 with a walk-off two-run homer in Sunday's extra-inning's win over the Rangers.
ANALYSIS
The Giants were down to their final out after they had been winning all game before allowing the Rangers to push it to extra innings. 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.
Aug 8, 2023
Not starting Tuesday
Bailey isn't in the Giants' lineup Tuesday against the Angels, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
After going 4-for-6 with four RBI and two runs scored over his last two games, Bailey will catch a breather Tuesday. Blake Sabol will take over behind the plate and bat sixth.
Aug 8, 2023
Delivers go-ahead knock
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.
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.
Aug 1, 2023
Sits down Tuesday
Bailey isn't in the Giants' lineup Tuesday against Arizona, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After a 2-for-5 performance during Monday's series opener, Bailey will catch a breather Tuesday. Blake Sabol will take over behind the plate and bat fifth while Bailey rests.
Jul 30, 2023
Gets rest Sunday
Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will get a breather after he started behind the plate in each of the Giants' previous six games. Blake Sabol is catching for opening pitcher Scott Alexander in the series finale.
Jul 22, 2023
Resting Saturday
Bailey will be on the bench Saturday against the Nationals, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey burst onto the scene with a .904 OPS in his first 33 games, but he's hit a wall since the start of July. In 14 games this month, he's hitting .125/.176/.167 with 17 strikeouts and just one walk. Blake Sabol starts behind the plate for the fourth time in nine games since the All-Star break.
Jul 15, 2023
Notches first big-league steal
Bailey went 1-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was effective on both sides of the stolen-base equation Friday, as he also threw out Tucupita Marcano in the third inning. Bailey's theft was the first in his career, and as a catcher, he shouldn't be expected to run frequently. He's also slashing .290/.320/.483 with five home runs, 27 RBI, 15 runs scored, 11 doubles and a triple over 41 contests, though he's hitting a light .167 in July.
Jun 30, 2023
Belts go-ahead homer
Bailey went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Friday's win against the Mets.
ANALYSIS
Bailey's eighth-inning shot gave the Giants the late lead. He's gone 11-for-29 (.379) with five extra-base hits and six RBI over his last eight games. The rookie catcher is now slashing .322/.347/.557 with five homers in 33 career MLB games.
Jun 24, 2023
Mashes fourth homer
Bailey went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-5 win over the Diamondbacks.
ANALYSIS
Bailey is off to a good start since getting called up to the big leagues on May 19. The 2020 first-round pick is slashing .330/.361/.560 so far, and is quickly proving to be a worthy fantasy option. His four total homers aren't eye-popping, but his contact hitting has been excellent, as he has hits in 10 of his 15 contests.
Jun 21, 2023
Sitting Wednesday
Bailey isn't starting Wednesday against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey is 3-for-12 with three RBI across his last three games and will take a seat Wednesday. Blake Sabol will take over behind the dish and bat sixth.
Jun 18, 2023
Out of Sunday's lineup
Bailey is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey started the past five games and will receive a well-deserved day off Sunday. Blake Sabol will take over behind the plate and bat seventh.
Jun 14, 2023
Swats third homer
Bailey went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 11-3 win over the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
He launched a solo shot off Genesis Cabrera in the sixth inning, going back-to-back with Mike Yastrzemski to blow open what had been a 6-2 game. Bailey continues to solidify his hold on the Giants' starting job behind the plate, and since his promotion in mid-May he's slashing .323/.353/.585 through 70 plate appearances with three homers and 16 RBI. His 3:19 BB:K and .419 BABIP suggest there will be regression coming for his batting average, however -- which wouldn't be a shocking development for a 24-year-old who batted .225 in High-A only last year.
Jun 11, 2023
Takes seat Sunday
Bailey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey is out of the lineup for a second consecutive game after returning from a neck injury Friday, but the Giants haven't disclosed whether a setback with the neck is what has kept him on the bench. Whatever the case, Blake Sabol will get the start behind the plate Sunday and hit eighth in Bailey's absence.
Jun 9, 2023
Back in lineup
Bailey (neck) is starting behind the plate Friday against the Cubs, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Neck tightness kept Bailey out of the lineup Thursday, but the issue seems to have subsided ahead of Friday's contest. The 24-year-old backstop has been on a tear since earning a promotion from Triple-A Sacramento, slashing .309/.321/.545 across 58 plate appearances.
Jun 8, 2023
Out with neck issue
Bailey is absent from the lineup Thursday against the Rockies due to neck tightness, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey was supposed to start behind the plate in the Giants' series finale at Coors Field, but Blake Sabol has been pressed into duty instead. It's considered a minor issue and Bailey could be available off the bench.
Jun 7, 2023
Three extra-base hits in win
Bailey went 3-for-5 with two doubles, one triple, one RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Rockies.
ANALYSIS
Bailey took advantage of the Colorado air to pummel some extra-base hits. The catcher has logged four multi-hit efforts over his last nine contests, and he continues to see regular playing time behind the dish. He's also struck out 11 times over his last six games, and he's at a 31.6 percent strikeout rate on the year. Bailey has added a strong .309/.321/.545 slash line with two home runs, 13 RBI, six runs scored, five doubles and a triple in 15 games. It's unclear if Bailey's shown enough to stay in the majors once joey Bart (groin) is activated from the injured list.
May 29, 2023
Drives in four runs
Bailey went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Pirates.
ANALYSIS
Bailey knocked a two-run double in the second inning before capping off his day with a two-run shot in the seventh. The rookie catcher has collected seven hits and seven RBI over his last three games. After posting a .777 OPS through 28 minor-league appearances, Bailey is slashing .355/.375/.645 with five extra-base hits in 33 MLB plate appearances.
May 28, 2023
Not in lineup Sunday
Bailey is not in the starting lineup against the Brewers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will get a day of rest after starting the first three games of the series against Milwaukee. Blake Sabol will handle catching duties in Sabol's absence while hitting sixth against Colin Rea and the Brewers.
May 27, 2023
First career four-hit game
Bailey went 4-for-5 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Friday's 15-1 win over the Brewers.
ANALYSIS
Bailey hit safely in four of the first five games in which he recorded an at-bat. He was able to enjoy his first big game Friday in the blowout win. Bailey's seeing consistent playing time, and he's done well with it, logging three extra-base hits and seven RBI while batting. 364 through 24 plate appearances.
May 24, 2023
Sits after four straight starts
Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will get a breather for the series finale after he started behind the plate in each of the Giants' four games while going 3-for-13 with a home run, a walk and three RBI. Though Blake Sabol will draw the nod at catcher Wednesday, Bailey appears set to receive a look as the Giants' primary backstop until Joey Bart (groin) is ready to return from the injured list.
May 21, 2023
Launches first major-league homer
Bailey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Marlins.
ANALYSIS
Bailey had four homers over 28 games at the top-two levels of the minors, and he showed off that power Sunday. He went yard in the second inning to tie the game at 1-1 in just his third major-league contest. The 23-year-old catcher also showed the ability to play small ball, with his sacrifice bunt in the sixth driving in another run. Bailey slashed just .196/.300/.333 in 14 contests with Triple-A Sacramento to begin the season, but he's now poised for a chance to share time with Blake Sabol behind the dish in the majors while Joey Bart heals from a groin injury.
May 19, 2023
Contract selected by Giants
Bailey had his contract selected by the Giants on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Bailey will join the major-league roster after he spent 14 games with Triple-A Sacramento, struggling to a .196 average with two homers, four RBI, five runs scored and a stolen base over 51 at-bats. The 23-year-old has yet to make his MLB debut and he'll likely get that shot soon while operating as a reserve option behind Blake Sabol at catcher after Joey Bart (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday.
Apr 26, 2023
Promoted to Triple-A
Bailey was promoted to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.
ANALYSIS
After finishing 2022 in High-A and playing just 14 games in Double-A, the 23-year-old backstop is quickly ascending through the Giants' farm system. Bailey slashed .333/.400/.481 over 60 plate appearances with Double-A Richmond. If he's able to keep his hot streak going, there's a chance he cracks the big leagues at some point, though he would have to be added to the 40-man roster before that can happen.
Mar 15, 2023
Reassigned to minor-league camp
The Giants reassigned Bailey to minor-league camp Wednesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
The decision to send down the 23-year-old backstop hardly comes as a surprise, as Bailey has yet to advance past High-A ball. Bailey slashed .225/.342/.419 through 325 plate appearances with High-A Eugene last season and could begin 2023 there again, but there's also a solid chance he gets bumped up to Double-A Richmond for Opening Day.
Feb 12, 2021
Receives camp invite
Bailey received an invitation to the Giants' major-league spring training Friday.
ANALYSIS
The 13th overall pick of the 2020 first-year player draft, Bailey will be in big-league camp during his first spring training as a professional. Bailey has yet to make a game appearance due to the cancelation of the minor-league season last year, but he was added to San Francisco's 60-player pool and worked at the alternate training site.
