Out for over a month White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Friday that Bart is expected to be sidelined for "over a month" due to a left hand fracture, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Bart's hand was hit by a pitch during Thursday's game against Boston. The veteran catcher is set to be sidelined until at least mid-September, and how he progresses in his recovery program will determine whether he'll be back in action with the White Sox before the conclusion of the 2026 season. With Kyle Teel also sidelined until at least September due to a left high-ankle sprain, Drew Romo and Edgar Quero will handle catching duties for the White Sox moving forward.

Sent to injured list The White Sox placed Bart on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a fractured fifth metacarpal in his left hand.

Impact Bart suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch in Thursday's loss to the Red Sox. With Bart expected to miss multiple weeks, Edgar Quero is back from Triple-A to form a catching tandem with Drew Romo for the White Sox.

Suffers fractured hand Bart suffered a fractured fifth metacarpal in his left hand after being hit by a pitch Thursday versus the Red Sox.

Impact Bart took a 97.7 mph fastball from Erik Miller off his left hand with two outs in the top of the seventh inning, and he was immediately removed from the game. The catcher will likely undergo additional imaging, and an update on his status will likely come thereafter.

Heading to bench Wednesday Bart is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Bart will hit the bench after he started behind the plate and went 0-for-3 with a walk in his White Sox debut during Tuesday's 14-2 loss. Drew Romo will receive the nod at catcher Wednesday, but Bart could end up seeing the bulk of the reps until the White Sox get Kyle Teel (ankle) back from the injured list.

Catches on with White Sox The White Sox acquired Bart from Atlanta on Monday in exchange for right-hander Duncan Davitt, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bart's time in Atlanta had an expiration date with Sean Murphy (finger) due back from the injured list this week, and the 29-year-old ended up landing in what appears to be a favorable spot for his playing-time outlook. With Kyle Teel (ankle) likely to be out until at least early September, Bart could immediately emerge as the No. 1 catcher in Chicago, as the White Sox have received little in the way of production from either Drew Romo (.504 OPS in 151 plate appearances) or Edgar Quero (.492 OPS in 193 plate appearances) this season. Bart, meanwhile, has supplied a .226/.303/.377 slash line in 119 plate appearances between stops with Pittsburgh and Atlanta.

Lifts first homer with new team Bart went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to San Diego.

Impact Bart was traded to Atlanta from Pittsburgh last Thursday and has played in four games with his new team. He collected his first two hits for Atlanta, including a sixth-inning homer that accounted for the club's only runs Wednesday. On the year, the catcher is batting .246 with a .665 OPS, three homers, nine RBI, 10 runs scored and a double over 25 contests. Bart is likely to fill a backup role behind Drake Baldwin, though with Baldwin struggling lately, Bart could poach some starts against left-handed pitchers.
