Trivino allowed five earned runs on three hits -- including two home runs -- and a walk over two-thirds of an inning in Tuesday's 11-3 loss to Milwaukee. He also hit one batter.
The veteran reliever entered the game for Jordan Hicks in the sixth, inheriting two runners with no outs. Trivino retired the first batter he faced, but things unraveled from there, as he surrendered a grand slam and a two-run home run before being pulled. The right-hander now owns a 6.97 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and a 10:5 K:BB across 10.1 innings in nine appearances this season.

Giants' Lou Trivino: Competing for bullpen spot
Rotowire
Trivino threw a scoreless inning while striking out two in Thursday's Cactus League game against the Mariners.
Trivino has not appeared in a big-league game since 2022 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, and Thursday's outing marked his Cactus League debut. He had success for several years out of the Athletics' bullpen spanning 2018-21 and is in the Giants' camp as a non-roster invitee. If Trivino proves to be healthy, he should gain consideration as an option to break camp with the big-league club.

Giants' Lou Trivino: No limitations to begin camp
Rotowire
Trivino (elbow) will throw a live batting practice session Wednesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Trivino -- who is attending Giants camp as a non-roster invitee -- confirmed that he's back to full health after he was limited to a handful of rehab appearances in the minors in 2024 while he completed his recovery from May 2023 Tommy John surgery and then battled a shoulder issue in September. During his last healthy MLB season in 2022, Trivino made 64 relief appearances between the Athletics and Yankees, submitting a 4.53 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 67:24 K:BB while collecting 11 saves and four holds across 53.2 innings. He'll likely be vying for a low-leverage relief role in the Giants' Opening Day bullpen.

Rotowire
The Giants signed Trivino (elbow/shoulder) to a minor-league contract Thursday with an invitation to spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Trivino had Tommy John surgery in May of 2023 and had to shut down a rehab assignment this past September due to a shoulder issue. However, he looks to be healthy now and reportedly looked good during an audition for clubs in January. Trivino hasn't pitched in the majors since 2022, so he seems likely to begin the 2025 season in the minors and hope to earn a promotion.

Lou Trivino: Option turned down by Yankees
Rotowire
The Yankees declined Trivino's (elbow) $5 million club option for 2025 on Sunday, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
The right-hander hasn't seen a big-league mound since 2022 and spent this year working his way back from Tommy John surgery, so it's not a surprise New York wasn't willing to commit to a $5 million salary. Trivino had a 4.53 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 67:24 K:BB in 64 outings between the Yankees and A's in 2022.

Yankees' Lou Trivino: Shut down from throwing
Rotowire
Manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Trivino (elbow) has been shut down due to "shoulder stuff," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Trivino had been working his way back from Tommy John surgery and recently agreed to extend his rehab assignment, but it's a moot point now that his shoulder's barking. Boone was vague and didn't disclose the extent of the issue, so it's unclear whether Trivino could still be an option in the postseason.

Yankees' Lou Trivino: Extends rehab assignment
Rotowire
Trivino (elbow) agreed in mid-September to extend his minor-league rehab assignment an additional 10 days, per MLB.com.
Trivino continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery performed last May and a bout of right elbow inflammation that sprung up this April. Though he has a 4.91 ERA and 1.45 WHIP over 11 rehab appearances, the veteran reliever has pitched three consecutive scoreless outings during which he's posted a 3:3 K:BB over 3.2 innings. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sept. 14 that Trivino has been "building a lot of good momentum," and there's still a chance the right-hander could join the New York bullpen before the end of the season.

Rotowire
Trivino (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Wednesday.

Yankees' Lou Trivino: Progressing slowly in rehab
Rotowire
Trivino (elbow) has been throwing, but Yankees manager Aaron Boone said the reliever's rehab has been "a little bit slow," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Trivino is attempting to return from the Tommy John surgery he underwent on his right elbow last May. The right-hander appeared close to facing hitters in late April but was shut down less than a month later after experiencing inflammation in the surgically repaired elbow. Though he's since resumed throwing, it appears Trivino is still multiple weeks away from a potential return.

Yankees' Lou Trivino: Still not throwing
Rotowire
Trivino (elbow) hasn't resumed throwing since being shut down in early May, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
It was reported May 12 that Trivino was in the midst of a 3-to-4 week shutdown period, and although it's been three weeks since the announcement, the 30-year-old has yet to start throwing again. At this time, there's no timeline for Trivino's throwing program to begin, but it's safe to assume he'll be out until at least the All-Star break.

Yankees' Lou Trivino: Hits snag in recovery process
Rotowire
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that Trivino experienced inflammation in his surgically repaired right elbow in late April and is in the midst of a 3-to-4-week shutdown period, MLB.com reports. "He won't throw for a couple of more weeks, and then [will] start ramping up again," Boone said.
Trivino underwent Tommy John surgery May 3, 2023 and has hit his first snag in the rehab process, but the Yankees don't believe the setback is a major one. The right-hander's surgeon, Dr. Neal ElAttrache, performed imaging on Trivino, and nothing beyond inflammation was detected in his elbow. Assuming the multi-week rest period does its part and allows Trivino's inflammation to calm down, he should begin ramping up by the end of the month or the first week of June. Trivino is likely targeting a return from the 60-day injured list at some point around the All-Star break.
