  Davis went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts Tuesday against the Cubs. Davis was recalled to the majors Monday to replace Joey Bart (hamstring) on the roster. Davis drew his first start one day later, serving as the catcher while hitting ninth. He should get some opportunity for at-bats as long as Bart is sidelined, though it's unclear how playing time will be allocated between Davis and Yasmani Grandal.

• Pirates' Henry Davis: Recalled from Triple-A, as expected

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  The Pirates recalled Davis from Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday. Davis will receive another opportunity as a result of Joey Bart (hamstring) landing on the 10-day injured list. The 24-year-old has managed a .503 OPS in 29 games in the majors this season but had been hitting well of late with Indianapolis with a .939 OPS and a couple of home runs over his last 12 contests. Davis should share catching responsibilities with Yasmani Grandal while Bart is sidelined.

  Davis is expected to be called up from Triple-A Indianapolis on Monday, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

The 24-year-old will replace Joey Bart (hamstring) in a timeshare at catcher with Yasmani Grandal after Bart is officially placed on the 10-day injured list Monday.

• Pirates' Henry Davis: Activated and optioned

  07/07/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Pirates reinstated Davis (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Indianapolis. Davis had made the last three of his five rehab appearances at Indianapolis, so he'll stick around with the affiliate since the Pirates didn't have a spot for him on the 26-man active roster. Joey Bart will continue to serve as the top backup to No. 1 catcher Yasmani Grandal, though with Grandal on an expiring contract and having mustered a lowly .511 OPS over 128 plate appearances on the season, it wouldn't be surprising if he was eventually designated for assignment to make room for Davis at some point after the All-Star break.
