Impact Tromp appeared in three games with the major-league club in early June, and he went 4-for-9 with a home run, two RBI and two strikeouts.

Launches first homer Tromp went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in Wednesday's 4-3, extra-innings loss to the Rangers.

Impact Tromp was the Giants' best offensive player in his second game of the season, as none of his teammates recorded two hits in the afternoon loss. Backup catcher Curt Casali (wrist) figures to replace Tromp when activated from the injured list, but more performances like Wednesday's could potentially earn Tromp a longer stay on the big-league roster.

Optioned to alternate site Tromp was optioned to the Giants' alternate training site Monday.

Impact Tromp will give the Giants an extra healthy catcher for Sunday's series finale in Miami while Buster Posey (elbow) is banged up. The Giants continue to list Posey as day-to-day and are seemingly hopeful that he'll avoid a trip to the 10-day injured list, in which case Tromp's stay on the active roster will likely be brief.

Beginning in 2021 in minors The Giants optioned Tromp to their minor-league camp Monday.

Impact Tromp and fellow catcher Joey Bart were both part of Monday's roster cuts, as the Giants appear set to go with Buster Posey and Curt Casali as their two backstops for Opening Day. If Bart and Tromp are both assigned to Triple-A Sacramento, Tromp would likely serve as the No. 2 option behind Bart, who is being groomed as Posey's long-term replacement.

Non-tendered by Giants Tromp was non-tendered by San Francisco on Wednesday, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact The 25-year-old made his big-league debut with the Giants in 2020 and had a .213/.219/.426 slash line and 31.2 percent strikeout rate in 24 games. Tromp had a .999 OPS at Triple-A in 2019, so he shouldn't have an issue securing a minor-league deal somewhere.
