AUSTIN ROMINE NEWS

Out several weeks Romine is dealing with a "significant" wrist sprain and will miss several weeks, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Romine was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday, and he'll miss more than the minimum amount of time while he recovers. He doesn't yet have an established timetable to return to game action, but Tony Wolters should serve as the primary backup behind the plate while Romine is out.

Impact Romine struck out in each of his two at-bats in Sunday's loss to Milwaukee, and he apparently sustained a wrist injury that will force him to miss time. Tony Wolters' contract was selected in a corresponding move, and Wolters should serve as the primary backup to Willson Contreras while Romine is sidelined.
