Jordan Romano

Jordan Romano notched his sixth save of the season as the Blue Jays edged out the Twins 10-8.

Fantasy Impact

He allowed one hit and struck out two batters in a clean inning of work. Despite a somewhat bloated ERA of 4.15 and a WHIP of 1.38 this season, Romano's performance in clutch situations continues to underscore his value in fantasy leagues, particularly those that reward saves. His solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (4.00) and consistent save opportunities make him a viable option for fantasy managers in need of relief pitching, though his susceptibility to allowing hits can be a concern. His ability to close out games without surrendering leads, as evidenced by zero blown saves, should keep him firmly in the closer role and relevant in fantasy discussions.

This performance, while effective in preserving the win, highlighted some ongoing concerns with Romano's reliability. His ERA for the season now sits at an unsettling 4.70, paired with a WHIP of 1.43, which are hardly the elite numbers fantasy managers hope for from a closer. While his save tonight adds to a decent tally, his lack of strikeouts and high ERA in this outing are red flags. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on potential alternatives for saves, as Romano's grip on the closer role could loosen if these shaky performances continue.

Jordan Romano delivered a flawless performance, securing a save in the Blue Jays' 5-2 victory over the Padres.

Fantasy Impact

He tossed 11 pitches, allowed no hits or walks, and struck out one batter. This outing is a reassuring sign for fantasy managers. His WHIP, now improved to 0.67, alongside a 2.92 FIP, suggests better days ahead, potentially making him a more reliable closing option. Romano's ability to maintain a low BABIP (.222) indicates that he can manage hits effectively, which should keep his ERA in check moving forward. This performance might be what he needed, so fantasy managers should feel a bit more confident in slotting him into their lineups.
