One-year contract with Philadelphia The Phillies agreed to a one-year, $7.75 million contract with Romano (elbow) on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Impact Romano was non-tendered by the Blue Jays last month but winds up getting an amount similar to what he was projected to receive via arbitration. The 31-year-old was limited to just 15 appearances in 2024 due to a right elbow issue which eventually required surgery, and he allowed 10 runs across 13.2 innings in those appearances. However, Romano is expected to be recovered in time for spring training and he was one of the better relievers in baseball from 2021 to 2023, collecting a 2.37 ERA and 30.3 percent strikeout rate while notching 95 saves. If healthy, he'll be a candidate to see save chances for the Phillies in 2025.

Blue Jays non-tender Jordan Romano, walk away from injured Canadian closer After working in solitude for months in a bid to get healthy, Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano has been unceremoniously let go.

NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • TORONTOSUN.COM

Cut loose by Toronto Romano (elbow) was non-tendered by the Blue Jays on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The right-hander was one of the best closers in baseball from 2021 to 2023 with a 2.37 ERA and 95 saves, but Toronto elected not to tender him a contract for 2025. Romano allowed 10 earned runs in 15 appearances in 2024 and sat out most of the season due to elbow issues, which necessitated arthroscopic surgery in July. The 31-year-old was ramping up his throwing program at the end of the regular season and could be ready for the start of spring training, assuming he's avoided any setbacks in his recovery.

Begins throwing program Romano (elbow) has begun throwing on flat ground from 60 feet, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Romano had arthroscopic right elbow surgery two months ago and will now begin ramping things back up with the hope of returning before the end of the season. If the reliever is able to make it back, it probably won't happen until late September, and it's unlikely he'd be thrown back into the closer role at that point.

Progressing, but not yet throwing Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Friday that Romano (elbow) is "progressing well" and is "feeling good" following his July 3 arthroscopic surgery, but the right-hander has yet...

Impact After being placed on the injured list June 1 due to a right elbow inflammation, Romano twice had his throwing program shut down before he eventually required a procedure to repair an impingement. Though the Blue Jays seem satisfied with Romano's condition five weeks after surgery, he likely won't be rushed back into action, especially with Toronto out of playoff contention. Romano hasn't been ruled out from pitching again this season, but once he starts throwing again, the Blue Jays will have to wait and see how the 31-year-old's elbow responds before mapping out a potential target date for his return from the IL.

Transferred to 60-day IL The Blue Jays transferred Romano (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Romano landed on the 15-day injured list June 1 due to right elbow inflammation. He was shut down from throwing twice after landing on the IL, and he eventually underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair an impingement in his throwing elbow July 3. Romano still has a ways to go before throwing again, and it's unclear whether he will return to major-league action by the end of the season. With Yimi Garcia traded to Seattle on Friday, Chad Green appears set to continue serving as Toronto's primary closer.
