BART HEADED TO THE 'BURGH
The Pittsburgh Pirates acquired catcher Joey Bart from the San Francisco Giants for pitcher Austin Strickland.
What does it give the Pittsburgh Pirates
Bart is a catcher who has not quite matched expectations in MLB. The Pirates hope they can get the most out of his skill set.
What does it give the San Francisco Giants
The Giants got back a pitching prospect (Strickland) in exchange for Bart, who had been recently designated for assignment.
Fantasy impact
Keep an eye on both Bart and Strickland. Bart needs more of an opportunity to become a No. 1 catcher, but will he get it in Pittsburgh? Strickland is on the keeper radar for now.
