Overview
- The Rockies reached a minor-league agreement with reliever Jordan Romano, who will first report to the club’s performance lab in Scottsdale, Arizona.
- Team evaluators plan to assess his health and mechanics at the Arizona complex before placing him with a minor-league affiliate.
- The Angels designated Romano for assignment on April 26 and released him soon after following nine runs allowed in eight innings this season.
- Los Angeles remains responsible for the balance of his $2 million guarantee, while Colorado would owe only the prorated league minimum if he reaches the majors.
- Romano was a two-time All-Star with the Blue Jays but has declined since shoulder surgery in 2024 and an 8.23 ERA with the Phillies in 2025.
