Chadwick Tromp Designated For Assignment
The Atlanta Braves have designated catcher Chadwick Tromp for assignment to open a roster spot for Sean Murphy (rib), who was activated off the 10-day injured list on Sunday. Tromp was able to make the Opening Day roster with Murphy beginning the season on the injured list. However, he was deployed as the clear No. 2 backstop behind Drake Baldwin. During his brief taste in the majors this season, he only saw five at-bats and did not tally a hit. If he clears waivers, he will then move to Triple-A Gwinnett. Across 61 career games in the majors, Tromp has posted a .224/.235/.385 slash line with 10 doubles and five home runs. Fantasy managers in deeper two-catcher formats should continue to hold Baldwin on their roster as he still could have fantasy value operating as the No. 2 option behind Murphy.
