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.

Rotowire
Roupp (1-2) allowed six runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out four over 3.2 innings to take the loss Friday versus the Cardinals.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Fares well in start
Rotowire
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.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Starting Tuesday's contest
Rotowire
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.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Covers four scoreless innings
Rotowire

Giants' Landen Roupp: Tagged for three runs in relief
Rotowire
Roupp worked 2.2 innings out of the bullpen in Sunday's 10-4 win over the Dodgers, giving up three earned runs on three hits and two walks while striking out three.
Heading into Sunday, Roupp had been residing on Triple-A Sacramento's 7-day injured list, but he had made three rehab appearances in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. Rather than having him slot back into the Sacramento rotation Sunday, the Giants instead called him up from the minors to provide a fresh arm in the bullpen. Roupp ended up piggybacking starter Spencer Bivens, who tossed five innings of one-run ball before leaving the game. With the rotation having been hit hard by injuries lately, the Giants could have two openings during the upcoming week, but Bivens pitched well enough to earn one of those spots. Roupp could be an option for the other spot if Kyle Harrison (ankle) isn't ready to return from the 15-day injured list by the weekend.

Giants' Landen Roupp: In midst of rehab assignment
Rotowire
Roupp (undisclosed) made his third rehab appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Wednesday, striking out four over two perfect innings.
Roupp has resided on Triple-A Sacramento's 7-day injured list since May 24 with an unspecified injury, but he looks to be close to a return to action in the Pacific Coast League. He's cruised through his first three outings in the ACL, punching out 12 while not issuing a walk and allowing just two hits over five shutout innings. The injury came at an unfortunate time for Roupp, who possesses a spot on the Giants' 40-man roster and might have been under consideration to join the injury-riddled big-league rotation had he been healthy.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Shelved at Triple-A
Rotowire
Triple-A Sacramento placed Roupp on its 7-day injured list Friday with an unspecified injury.
Roupp won a spot on the Giants' Opening Day roster as a multi-inning relief arm, but he was sent back to Triple-A on May 1 and had since taken on a rotation spot for Sacramento. Through three starts, Roupp posted a 2.79 ERA and 1.20 WHIP while striking out 16 over 9.2 innings. The injury comes at a particular inconvenient time, as the Giants might have had an opening in the rotation for Roupp this week after recently pulling the plug on Mason Black as their No. 5 starter.

Roupp was optioned to Triple-A on Tuesday, but he'll be back with the Giants one day later after Blake Snell (adductor) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Snell had been slated to start Wednesday's game against the Mets, and though Ryan Walker is now set to serve as the Giants' opening pitcher, Roupp is likely to be part of the Giants' pitching plan either as a multi-inning reliever. Each of his eight appearances with the Giants this season have come out of the bullpen, with Roupp posting a 4.35 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 7:4 K:BB across 10.1 innings.
