Chadwick Tromp - Page 3 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Leaves with back tightness Tromp exited Monday night's game against the Blue Jays with lower back tightness, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Gary Sanchez moved from designated hitter to catcher in the bottom of the third inning, and starting pitcher Trevor Rogers entered the lineup in the nine spot. Prior to leaving, Tromp went 0-for-1 at the plate. With both Adley Rutschman (oblique) and Maverick Handley (concussion) on the injured list, Sanchez looks likely to handle catching duties for Baltimore in the immediate future.

Impact He passed through waivers after being removed from the Orioles' 40-man roster, but Tromp has decided to look for a gig elsewhere rather than accept an outright assignment. The 30-year-old shouldn't have an issue finding another organization in need of catching depth.

Joining O's The Orioles selected Tromp's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

He'll operate as Baltimore's backup catcher behind Maverick Handley until Rutschman is back in action. Tromp appeared in two MLB games this season with Atlanta before being DFA'd on April 6.

Nets MiLB deal from Baltimore The Orioles signed Tromp to a minor-league contract Sunday.

Impact Tromp elected free agency after being removed from Atlanta's 40-man roster last week and he's now caught on with Baltimore, where he'll provide catching depth. With Adley Rutschman and Gary Sanchez holding down the top two catching spots with the big club, Tromp will need an injury or two before being considered for the majors.

Loses 40-man roster spot Atlanta designated Tromp for assignment Sunday.

Impact With Sean Murphy (rib) completing his rehab assignment and ready to return from the 10-day injured list in advance of the big club's next game Tuesday versus Philadelphia, Atlanta elected to activate him a couple days early. Tromp ended up being the casualty, as he'll surrendered his spot on the 26-man active roster to Tromp while also losing his spot on the 40-man roster since he doesn't have minor-league options remaining. Atlanta is hopeful Tromp will go unclaimed off waivers and stick around in the organization as catching depth at Triple-A Gwinnett. Tromp appeared in just two of Atlanta's first nine games while Drake Baldwin dominated the playing time behind the plate.

MARCH 28, 2025 • Associated Press

On track for 26-man roster Tromp will likely back up rookie Drake Baldwin at catcher on Atlanta's Opening Day roster, Justin Toscano of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Sean Murphy (ribs) will begin the season on the IL, opening the door for Baldwin to make his big-league debut. Had Murphy not been injured, Tromp likely would have been the No. 2 backstop anyway, as he's out of minor-league options, but if Baldwin shows he's ready for the majors over the first weeks of the year, Tromp could be squeezed off the roster when Murphy returns.

MARCH 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Favorite for backup job Tromp is the leading candidate to back up Sean Murphy behind the plate for Atlanta to begin the season, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 29-year-old has never gotten more than 64 big-league plate appearances in a season and has just a .232/.237/.397 slash line for his career, but Atlanta is comfortable with his defense and game-calling. Tromp's main competition for a spot on the Opening Day roster will likely come from top prospect Drake Baldwin, although veteran backstops Curt Casali and Sandy Leon will also be in camp for Atlanta.

Heads back to Triple-A Atlanta optioned Tromp to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

Impact Tromp was up with Atlanta for the club's last three games while Travis d'Arnaud (personal) was away from the team on paternity leave, but Tromp will head back to the minors now that d'Arnaud has been reinstated to the 28-man active roster. Atlanta didn't use Tromp during his abbreviated stay with the big club, as Sean Murphy started all three games at catcher.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back in big leagues Atlanta recalled Tromp from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

Impact Tromp will be the club's backup catcher behind Sean Murphy while Travis d'Arnaud is on the paternity list. He's slashed .250/.259/.365 in 19 games at the major-league level in 2024.
