The Atlanta Braves re-signed catcher Chadwick Tromp to a minor-league deal on Wednesday. Tromp will return to the organization for the 2024 season after he was non-tendered by the club last week. He has played in just seven games for Atlanta at the major-league level the last two seasons and has gone 5-for-20 with three doubles, four RBI and a run scored. The 28-year-old backstop will be back to provide depth at the catcher position behind Sean Murphy and Travis d'Arnaud. In 65 games at Triple-A Gwinnett in 2023, Tromp slashed .210/.336/.384 with 10 home runs and 33 RBI. He's a career .246 hitter with 51 homers in 521 minor-league games over 10 seasons.

The Atlanta Braves optioned catcher Chadwick Tromp to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday and reassigned right-handers Blake Burkhalter, Roel Ramirez and Brooks Wilson to minor-league camp. The Braves now have 61 total players in camp. It's not a surprise that Tromp was sent to Triple-A to begin the 2023 season with Sean Murphy and Travis d'Arnaud on the big-league roster at the position. However, if Murphy or d'Arnaud get hurt along the way, Tromp figures to be the first catcher called up to the majors by the Braves. The 27-year-old backstop has played in 34 major-league games in the last three years with the Giants and Braves, although he's played in just 10 games in the last two years (one with Atlanta in 2022).

Atlanta Braves minor league catcher Chadwick Tromp is making his presence felt at the Triple-A level so far this season. The 27-year-old is seeing the ball well and hitting with power in the Atlanta pipeline. He now owns a 10-game hitting streak. During the month of May alone, he is 10-for-21 with four homers, 13 RBI, two walks, and just two strikeouts. Although he has been on a tear and could reach the majors soon, any promotion would merely put him in a backup role. Thus, he's not on the fantasy radar at this point in his career.
