If you care for them as carefully as you spell I suggest firewood.

No experience with Bay (or Bat) trees,
but if all the leaves are yellow, you're too late.

There are several unrelated trees called "bay". Do you have the
botanical name?

If you mean bay laurel, Laurus nobilis, the leaves ought to be deep green
all year round. If they are yellow you have a really sick tree, as others
have said it may not survive. There are many problems that present this
way. Without more information about the growing conditions, when, where and
how this happened it is pointless to guess which problem it is.

help himself.
