Impact Tromp elected free agency Saturday after being DFA'd by Atlanta and will now return to the Orioles, with whom he spent a brief period of time last season.

Enters open market Tromp cleared waivers Saturday and elected free agency, Barrett Sallee of 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

Impact Atlanta DFA'd Tromp on Thursday, and instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Gwinnett, the 31-year-old will test his value in free agency. He's slashed just .169/.253/.325 across 87 plate appearances in the minors this season, so he will almost certainly have to settle for another minor-league deal.

Impact Tromp bounced between Atlanta, Baltimore and Boston in 2025 and slashed .191/.256/.266 with 20 RBI and 17 runs scored across 207 plate appearances in Triple-A.

Elects free agency after IL stint Tromp (back) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday and elected free agency instead of an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com...

Impact The Orioles appeared to not have room on the 26-man roster for Tromp due to Adley Rutschman (oblique) being close to a return from the IL. Rather than stay in the organization in Triple-A, Tromp opted to hit the free market. Now that he's fully recovered from a lower back strain, the 30-year-old should garner interest from teams looking to add backstop depth. Tromp is slashing .250/.330/.370 with three home runs and 12 RBI across 103 plate appearances in Triple-A this season.
