Chadwick Tromp Dealing With Lower-Back Strain
Chadwick Tromp (back) will land on the 10-day injured list due to a lower-back strain after leaving Monday's game early. Tromp's injury is the latest in a string of injuries to Baltimore's backstops that have left the team extremely short-handed behind the dish. Adley Rutschman (oblique) is expected to be out through the All-Star break, and Maverick Handley (head) is on the seven-day concussion IL, leaving Gary Sanchez as the only healthy backstop left on the club's 40-man roster unless the team is finally ready to promote top prospect Samuel Basallo. Basallo is hitting .264 at Triple-A with 16 homers and a .417 wOBA backed up by a 57.1% hard-hit rate. If he's promoted, he'll be worth adding in most fantasy formats, even if his first stay in the majors is short.
