Jordan Romano Won't Return This Season
3 months agoToronto Blue Jays right-handed reliever Jordan Romano (elbow) will not return this season. Romano has been throwing in Florida for over a week but just ran out of time to get back to the big leagues in 2024. He will continue progressing to mound work heading into the offseason. It shouldn't come as a surprise with Toronto not even close to playoff contention with the final several weeks of the season upon us. The 31-year-old Romano underwent arthroscopic right-elbow surgery two months ago and will now focus his attention on being a full-go for the start of spring training in the middle of February in 2025. For the rest of this season, veteran right-hander Chad Green will continue serving as Toronto's primary closer. It was a rough year for fantasy managers that had Romano rostered, as he saved only eight games in 15 appearances while posting a 6.59 ERA and 1.46 WHIP with 13 K's and four walks in 13 2/3 innings.
