Roupp was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday. With Roupp unavailable after starting Friday and the Giants' bullpen lacking fresh options, Trevor McDonald was summoned to take the roster spot. Roupp has legitimate starter stuff, led by an elite curveball, but he has never logged 110 innings in a season and is already 26.

Roupp allowed two hits and two walks while striking out four over five scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Sunday. Roupp has allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks over 10 innings across two starts since he joined the Giants' rotation. He was efficient Sunday, throwing 74 pitches (51 strikes) in this outing. He may continue to stretch out over the remainder of the campaign, which gives him a chance to be in the conversation for a rotation spot next year. Overall, Roupp has pitched to a 3.02 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 40:21 K:BB through 41.2 innings over 21 appearances this year.

Roupp (0-1) took the loss against the Brewers on Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out three over five innings. The Brewers piled on four of their five hits against Roupp in the first inning, leading to two runs and a lead they would never give back. Roupp totaled 68 pitches and only allowed an infield single over the subsequent four innings following his rocky opening frame. He's maintained a 1.33 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over nine appearances (20.1 innings) since Aug. 9. It remains to be seen whether Roupp's next appearance will be made as a starter or out of the bullpen and will likely hinge on whether the Giants are able to get Robbie Ray (hamstring) back from the injured list next week.

Roupp will start Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. It will be the first major-league start for Roupp, who fired 61 pitches over four scoreless relief innings in his last appearance Thursday versus the Diamondbacks. The righty has split time between the rotation and bullpen this season at Triple-A Sacramento, but he hasn't gone more than four frames in any outing in the majors and minors in 2024; therefore, he'll be relatively limited from a workload perspective.

The Giants optioned Roupp to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday. Roupp's demotion clears room on the Giants' 26-man active roster for right-hander Camilo Doval, who was recalled from Triple-A. In his four major-league outings after being recalled from Sacramento on Aug. 9, Roupp allowed one run on five hits and two walks while striking out eight over 6.2 innings. He'll likely shift back into the rotation as he rejoins the Triple-A club.
