View Draft Report

Romeo is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound righthander with a lean, athletic frame and background as a multi-sport athlete and basketball player. He throws from a simple, repeatable delivery that features a balanced finish and a high three-quarters slot. His fastball sits in the low 90s and has been up to 94-95, his slider has added power and is now in the low-to-mid-80s and he’ll also mix in a changeup around 80. Romeo’s control needs improvement but his delivery and athleticism could bode well for that development in the future.
