Bart (foot) will begin a rehab assignment Wednesday at Single-A Bradenton, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Bart has reached the final phase of his recovery process from a left foot infection, which has kept him on the 10-day injured list since May 12. Given the length of his absence, Bart could remain on assignment in the minors through the weekend before the Pirates evaluate him for a return during their six-game road trip next week. Prior to being deactivated, Bart had produced a .669 OPS over 62 plate appearances on the season.

Joseph Bart: Breaking News
Beginning rehab assignment
Bart (foot) is expected to start a rehab assignment this week for his left foot infection, reports Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com. Bart was placed on the 10-day injured list back on May 12 and will begin his first rehab assignment this upcoming week. Before landing on the IL, the 29-year-old slugged .259/.290/.379 with two home runs and six RBI in 62 plate appearances.
Cleared for light activities
Bart (foot) has been cleared to resume weight room activity and play light catch, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Per Pirates senior director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk, Bart is still "weeks away" from returning from the 10-day injured list, but the good news is that the 29-year-old catcher has progressed enough to take the next step in his recovery program. The Pirates should have a better sense of Bart's timeline to return as he continues to increase his baseball activities.
