If a “Mom’s Spaghetti” award existed for the 2022 Braves, there would be no better recipient than Chadwick Tromp. The 27-year-old minor league journeyman catcher from Aruba had one shot, one opportunity, given that appeared in, you guessed it — one game for the Braves. And while he didn’t drop any bombs, it was a phenomenal game for him, even though it ended up ending his season.
How Acquired
The Braves claimed Tromp off waivers from the Giants in September 2021. He didn’t make the team out of Spring Training, and was optioned down to Triple-A Gwinnett before the final round of cuts.
