A look at Joey Bart

[OldJacketFan]

Do these signees (once the signing is done) get assigned to play this summer? How does the timing of all that work?

Yes, anywhere between rookie ball and class A in 99% of the cases. Rare cases of a player rising to AAA quickly (see Bob Horner). Once they're signed clubs want to get them to their assignments asap

The White and Gold: Bart Headed To Arizona, Expected To Sign Soon

“He’s incredibly talented,” San Francisco general manager Bobby Evans said. “Give (Danny Hall) a lot of credit for letting him call his own game. That’s a huge amount of confidence. Joey just has this incredible drive.”

Bart would most likely spend time some with the team’s other draft choices in Arizona. He would likely spend the rest of the summer with the Class A Salem-Keizer Volcanoes, the organization’s short-season affiliate in Oregon. That team competes in the Northwest League and began its home season this week.

Make that 6 HR’s in 7 games! He homered again last night to make it 4 straight games with a HR.

This guy....it's early; but he's certainly not disappointing.

Joey Bart may be the CJ of our baseball program. Bart was the highest drafted in GT baseball history after all.

...and he led us to such glory on the Diamond.......wait, er......never mind! (NOT Bart's fault, that's for sure!)

All 5 (?) ACC first team players couldn't lead us to glory. So I don't blame it on Bart at all.

Hope he has a great career for decades. Catchers can last a long time.

I was hoping he would end up in Augusta, maybe he starts here next year unless they put him in AA.

Bart could be a quick riser through the minor leagues. He’ll probably start 2019 at High-A before spending the majority of the year at Double-A. I would be a little surprised if he doesn’t prove himself ready by 2020.

The Giants' Double A affiliate is the Richmond (VA) Flying Squirrels. Excellent!

One of my favorite signs on I-85 going west out of Richmond is "Squirrel Level". If anyone knew why there is such a name, it'd probably be a good story. So I checked it out and ....... https://thepeedmont.com/2018/04/15/...l-road-lacking-requisite-number-of-squirrels/

Maybe I'll go see the Squirrels at some point. Only 90 minutes away.

Yes it is slow without baseball.

@GTNavyNuke ... need to be paying attention if we want to catch Bart playing professionally (in Richmond) this season. He could be moving fast through the Giants organization.

Bart set to report with pitchers & catchers at Giants spring training. Big club wants a look at him before minor league camp(s) begin.
