Chapman helps Blue Jays rally past Angels with 6-5 win

Matt Chapman hit a go-ahead two-run double during Toronto’s three-run eighth inning and the Blue Jays rallied for the second straight night to defeat the Los Angeles Angels 6-5

MAY 29, 2022 • Associated Press

Can't complete save Romano pitched two-thirds of an inning in Saturday's 6-5 victory over the Angels, allowing one run on one hit and two walks. He failed to record a strikeout.

Impact Romano entered with a two-run lead in the ninth and recorded two quick outs but put four runners on and was removed in favor of Ross Stripling, who closed out the win. The 29-year-old threw 12 pitches Friday in addition to 24 Saturday with only 11 going for strikes in pitching on consecutive days for only the third time all season. The poor performance was an aberration or the typically reliable Romano, whose closer role isn't in jeopardy.

Perfect again Saturday Romano earned save No. 14 with a perfect ninth inning against the Reds on Saturday. He struck out the side.

Impact For the second consecutive day, Romano was perfect in nailing down the win for Toronto. He's shown no ill effects from the gastrointestinal infection he battled recently. Romano is now 14-for-16 in save chances this season.

Notches 13th save Romano worked a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his 13th save of the season in Friday's 2-1 win over the Reds.

Impact Seeing his first action since May 14 after overcoming a gastrointestinal infection, Romano needed only 10 pitches (seven strikes) to set down Cincy's 6-7-8 hitters. It's the first time in almost a month the right-hander didn't strike out a batter in an appearance, but his fastball topped out at 97.1 mph and he should regain his dominance once he puts the illness fully behind him. On the season, Romano sports a 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 17:5 K:BB through 15.2 innings.

Likely available Friday Romano (illness) will likely be available for Friday's game against the Reds, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.

Impact The right-hander has been dealing with a gastrointestinal infection since Monday, but he treated the issue with antibiotics this week and will likely be available out of the bullpen for Friday's series opener against the Reds. Assuming Romano is available, Adam Cimber would likely revert to a setup role after serving as the interim closer.

Impact Romano hasn't appeared out of the bullpen since Saturday on account of the illness, which he's been treating with antibiotics. Though the Blue Jays are labeling Romano as day-to-day and believe he'll avoid the IL, the 28-year-old doesn't sound like he'll be available for Wednesday's series finale with the Mariners. Adam Cimber has secured saves on back-to-back days while Romano was on the mend, but the Blue Jays could go in a different direction if a save situation arises Wednesday.

Deemed day-to-day Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said Tuesday that Romano remains day-to-day with a non-COVID-19-related illness, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Per Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca, Romano was spotted receiving an IV and additional fluids at the Toronto clubhouse earlier Tuesday, so the Blue Jays will presumably look to stay away from him in the second game of their series with the Mariners while he works to regain strength. Romano has recorded 12 of the Blue Jays' 14 saves on the season, with Adam Cimber gathering the other two.

Dealing with illness Romano was unavailable to pitch in Monday's game against the Mariners due to a non-COVID-related illness, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.

Impact Romano will be considered day-to-day moving forward and was spotted pacing the bullpen during Monday's matchup. "He's not gonna stay in the clubhouse, he's a gamer," said manager Charlie Montoyo. "And it's not COVID, so he's not contagious." The team will likely re-evaluate the closer Tuesday morning before determining his availability for the second game of the series.

MAY 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Monday Romano will not be available to pitch in Monday's game against Seattle and is currently being evaluated by the team's medical staff, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Impact The location and nature of Romano's injury remain a mystery at this point, and the Blue Jays will excercise caution by holding him out of the series opener. He'll be considered day-to-day until more information becomes available. Adam Cimber could serve as the team's closer if the situation presents itself Monday evening, as he's seen three save chances so far this season.

Impact Called upon to protect a 5-3 lead in the bottom of the ninth, Romano fanned Isiah Kiner-Falefa before issuing walks to Jose Trevino and DJ LeMahieu, setting the stage for the first walkoff homer of Aaron Judge's career. It's the first time Romano has walked multiple batters this season, and he sports a 3.29 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB through 13.2 innings while going 12-for-14 on save chances.

Snatches 12th save Romano pitched a scoreless ninth inning on his way to a save in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Yankees. He allowed two hits and walked one while also registering a strikeout.

Impact Romano had to work his way out of danger in this one, loading the bases in the ninth inning before getting Isiah Kiner-Falefa to ground out to end the contest. The 29-year-old has a league-high 12 saves on the season and now has a 1.35 ERA and 1.05 WHIP with 15 punchouts over 13.1 innings. With only one blown save in 13 attempts, he appears to be one of the best closer options for 2022 moving forward.
