Struggling for consistency Romano threw two-thirds of an inning in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Orioles, allowing no baserunners in the seventh frame.

Impact That's now seven scoreless outings in the last eight appearances for Romano, who has tumbled down Philadelphia's bullpen pecking order after opening the season as its closer. The 32-year-old right-hander has managed to produce a strong 0.72 WHIP since the start of July, but his 4.66 ERA during that span (9.2 innings) leaves quite a bit to be desired. Romano's average fastball velocity is down under 96 mph in 2025 for the first time since 2019, which is certainly concerning for a pitcher coming off a 2024 campaign that was ruined by right elbow troubles.

Giants catcher Bailey makes history with game-ending, inside-the-park home run

Patrick Bailey’s entrance into the Major League Baseball record books began with a tight swing that sent a fastball from Phillies reliever Jordan Romano into Triples Alley

JULY 9, 2025 • Associated Press

Implodes in ninth inning Romano (1-4) allowed three runs on three hits in one inning, taking a blown save and the loss in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Giants.

Impact Daniel Robert retired just one of three batters he faced in the eighth inning. Romano was able to clean up that mess, but he made one of his own in the ninth and couldn't escape it. Patrick Bailey knocked an inside-the-park home run after Romano allowed a double to Casey Schmitt and a single to Wilmer Flores. Romano has allowed seven runs over his last four outings, and this was his first save chance since he converted one May 29 versus Atlanta. He's struggled all year with a 7.44 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 36:14 K:BB over 32.2 innings, picking up eight saves, six holds and three blown saves. The Phillies' bullpen is a mess, but Romano's continued struggles likely mean Orion Kerkering and Matt Strahm will continue to get more save chances.

Continues to struggle Saturday Romano gave up four runs on four hits and no walks in the seventh inning during Saturday's 6-1 loss to Atlanta. He didn't record a strikeout.

Impact Romano's standing in the Phillies' bullpen already appeared to be in a state of flux, and Saturday's showing certainly won't do him any favors. The right-hander served up a grand slam to Sean Murphy to blow the game wide open for Atlanta. Romano has worked to a 7.94 ERA, 1.85 WHIP and 14:7 K:BB over his last 11.1 innings and hasn't seen a save chance in the month of June, so he seems to have fallen quite a bit behind Orion Kerkering and Matt Strahm when it comes to manager Rob Thomson's preferred ninth-inning options.

Works low-leverage situation Sunday Romano allowed one walk and no hits in one inning of relief during Sunday's 11-4 victory over Toronto. He struck out one.

Impact Romano's usage is worth noting -- he worked the eighth inning of an 11-4 game after being bypassed in favor of Matt Strahm for a save opportunity in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays. Philadelphia's bullpen pecking order has been in a state of flux for most of the season, and it appears Romano's stock in fantasy is beginning to drop. Although it may be hasty to declare a definitive shift in the Phillies' closer role, the right-hander has struggled with a 7.71 ERA, 2.29 WHIP and 10:6 K:BB over his last seven innings.

Hit with another loss Friday Romano (0-3) took the loss Friday as the Phillies were downed 5-4 by the Pirates, giving up a run on three hits in two-thirds of an inning. He struck out one.

Impact The sixth Phillie pitcher to take the mound in a bullpen game, Romano gave up three straight singles to begin the ninth inning and load the bases in a 4-4 tie. After fanning Oneil Cruz, the right-hander then hung a slider to Nick Gonzales that turned into a walk-off sacrifice fly. Romano has been tagged for a run in three straight appearances and been saddled with a loss in two straight, and his early-season struggles appear to be re-surfacing. Over his last six games, he carries a 10.80 ERA, 3.00 WHIP and 9:5 K:BB in five innings.

Gives up walk-off single Romano (1-2) was charged with the loss in Wednesday's 2-1 defeat to Toronto, allowing one run on two hits with one strikeout in two-thirds of an inning.

Impact Romano was tasked with keeping the game tied at 1-1 in the ninth inning, but he gave up a two-out, walk-off single to Alejandro Kirk. The hard-throwing right-hander has been shaky since retaking the closer's job, recording a 7.11 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB over his last 6.1 innings. Romano has gone 4-for-4 on save chances during this span, so he figures to remain Philadelphia's preferred ninth-inning weapon while leaving the door open for the likes of Orion Kerkering and Matt Strahm if his struggles continue.
