The Atlanta Braves activated catcher Joey Bart from the 10-day injured list on Friday, one day after acquiring him in a trade with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Pirates received right-handed reliever Hunter Stratton in Thursday's transaction.

Bart, 29, is a Georgia native who played for Georgia Tech. He hit .259 with two homers and six RBIs in 21 games for the Pirates this year before landing on the injured list in mid-May because of a left foot infection.

In five minor league rehab games over the past week, Bart went 4-for-16 (.250) with one homer and two RBIs for Triple-A Indianapolis.


Bart has a career .240 batting average with a .319 on-base percentage, a .369 slugging percentage, 30 homers and 119 RBIs in 356 games for the San Francisco Giants (2020-23) and the Pirates (2024-26). He was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 draft.
