The San Francisco Giants activated catcher Patrick Bailey from the 7-day concussion injured list and placed outfielder Austin Slater on that same list in advance of Saturday’s home game against the Cincinnati Reds.

The team also brought up infielder/outfielder Brett Wisely from Triple-A Sacramento and optioned catcher Jackson Reetz to Sacramento.

Slater was injured Friday when he crashed into the outfield wall in the first inning against the Reds. He has only five hits in 39 at-bats (.128) through 25 games in 2024 after hitting .270 in 89 games last season.

Bailey was sidelined after taking a foul ball off his mask last Saturday.

A first-round pick of the Giants in 2020, Bailey is slashing.278/.344/.456 through 25 games with three home runs and 10 RBIs.

In 32 games with Sacramento, Wisely slashed .311/.403/.487 with four home runs and 14 RBIs.
