INJURIES

Cut by Atlanta Atlanta released Casali on Monday.
Impact Atlanta had assigned Casali to minor-league camp Sunday, but rather than accepting a likely assignment at Triple-A Gwinnett to open the 2025 season, the veteran backstop was instead given the opportunity to try to find work on the open market. Casali spent the 2024 season in the Cubs and Giants organization, logging 125 plate appearances in the big leagues with the latter club and slashing .194/.293/.250 with one home run and eight RBI.

Assigned to minor-league camp Atlanta assigned Casali to minor-league camp Sunday.
Impact Casali was brought in by Atlanta on a minor-league deal in January after appearing in 41 regular-season games for the Giants in 2024. Even with Sean Murphy rehabbing from a fractured rib on his left side, Casali will start the 2025 campaign in Triple-A, leaving Drake Baldwin, Chadwick Tromp and Sandy Leon to battle for catching duties on Opening Day.
MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE
Lands in Atlanta as NRI Atlanta signed Casali to a minor-league contract Jan. 17 that includes an invitation to spring training, Aram Leighton of Just Baseball reports.
Impact Atlanta has an opening at backup catcher behind Sean Murphy that Casali could potentially fill. The 36-year-old appeared in 41 games for the Giants in 2024, putting up a .543 OPS with one home run.

Swats homer Sunday Casali went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Padres.
Impact Casali provided what ended up being a crucial home run after going yard against Alek Jacob in the sixth to put the Giants up 7-1 in a game that finished 7-6. It was the first home run of the season for the 35-year-old backstop and his first hit since Aug. 20. He's made just two starts since Patrick Bailey returned from the injured list at the end of August and is now slashing .178/.282/.233 with six RBI, 11 runs and an 11:19 BB:K in 105 plate appearances this year.
SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Returning to No. 2 role Casali is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact After making three consecutive starts at catcher, Casali will now hit the bench for the second day in a row. Casali should continue to find himself out of the lineup with more regularity moving forward after the Giants activated No. 1 backstop Patrick Bailey (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Thursday.
AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting down Wednesday Casali isn't in the Giants' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

AUGUST 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Filling in for Bailey at top catcher Casali will start at catcher and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Casali will start behind the dish for the third game in a row after going 3-for-6 with a walk, three runs and an RBI in the first two contests of the series. With Patrick Bailey (oblique) going on the injured list Tuesday, Casali looks poised to operate as the Giants' clear No. 1 catcher for the time being.

Impact After going 0-for-2 with a strikeout while starting behind the plate in Saturday's 4-3 loss, Casali will return to his usual bench role in the series finale. Casali will likely be in store for just one or two starts per week while No. 1 backstop Patrick Bailey is healthy.

Giants sign veteran catcher Curt Casali to 1-year deal

The San Francisco Giants have signed veteran catcher Curt Casali to a one-year contract amid a growing number of injuries on their roster
MAY 16, 2024 • Associated Press
Reunites with Giants Casali signed a one-year contract with the Giants on Wednesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
Impact Casali has spent all season with the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate, where he slashed .362/.489/.551 with 11 RBI across 88 plate appearances. He'll now return to San Francisco on a big-league contract to give the Giants depth behind the plate while Patrick Bailey (concussion) and Tom Murphy (knee) are sidelined. Blake Sabol will likely remain the primary option to start at catcher, though Casali could get the nod whenever the Giants are matched up against a left-handed starter.
MAY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Pulled off rehab assignment Casali (foot) was pulled off his minor-league rehab assignment Thursday.
Impact Casali is not immediately rejoining the Reds' active major-league roster, so he might have suffered a setback of some sort. The veteran catcher landed on the injured list in late July because of a left foot contusion.
AUGUST 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Begins rehab assignment Casali (foot) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Friday.
Impact Casali landed on the injured list July 24 with a bruised left foot and is now set to begin the final stage of his recovery process. The Reds were carrying three catchers prior to Casali getting injured, so it's possible Casali is optioned to Louisville upon being reinstated so Cincinnati can maintain a traditional two-catcher roster.
AUGUST 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on IL with bruised foot Casali was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left foot contusion, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact It's not clear when or how Casali suffered the injury, but he will be on the shelf for a bit. The Reds have been carrying three catchers, so they'll now go to a more traditional two-catcher setup.
