Jordan Romano

Jordan Romano picked up his fourth save of the season on Monday as he got Mike Yastrzemski to fly out with two runners on to preserve a 6-2 win over the Braves.

Fantasy Impact

Romano came on in relief of Chase Silseth, who started the ninth with a 6-1 lead. The Braves got a leadoff home run from Mauricio Dubon, a one-out single from Drake Baldwin, and a two-out walk to Austin Riley which prompted Romano to come into the game. Romano threw three pitches and got Yastrzemski to fly out to center field to end the game. Romano is tied for the major league lead, with the Yankees' David Bednar, with four saves to begin the season. He has not allowed a run, or a hit, in six appearances and has a 7:2 K:BB ratio. Romano was supposedly holding the fort down until Kirby Yates returned from injury. But, he has been so good thus far, that he may keep the closer's job once Yates comes back.

Jordan Romano pitched a perfect ninth inning for his third save of the season as he preserved a 1-0 victory over the Mariners on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Romano stepped into the closer's role for the injured Kirby Yates and he improved to 3-for-3 in save situations to begin the season. Despite the perfect inning, it didn't come without drama as Jo Adell robbed J.P. Crawford of a potential game-tying home run to lead off the ninth inning. Romano then got a popout and a strikeout to close out the Mariners. Romano had a disastrous season in Philadelphia last year, but has not allowed a run, or a hit, while posting a 7:2 K:BB ratio in 4.2 innings this season. Yates is getting closer to a return but Romano may hang on to the closer's role as long as he is pitching this well.

Jordan Romano retired the final two batters, pitching around a walk in the ninth, to secure his second save of the season as the Angels defeated the Cubs, 2-0.

Fantasy Impact

Romano has appeared in three games and is 2-for-2 on save opportunities to begin the season, posting a 4:2 K:BB ratio in 2.2 scoreless innings. The righthander is attempting to bounce back from a disastrous season in Philadelphia last year and he's off to a good start. Kirby Yates (knee) has begun playing catch and it remains to be seen if he will take over the closer's role upon his return or not. A lot of that, however, may have to do with how Romano performs over the next several games.

Jordan Romano pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his first save in an Angels' uniform, closing out a 3-0 win for Los Angeles on Thursday. Romano walked one and struck out one.

Fantasy Impact

Romano was given the Angels' first save opportunity with Kirby Yates on the IL, and he passed with flying colors as he needed only 12 pitches to close out the victory in Houston. The veteran righthander is coming off of a disastrous 2025 season when he went 2-4 with an 8.23 ERA in 42.2 innings with the Phillies. Romano will likely receive a majority of the save opportunities with the Angels while Yates is on the shelf.

Right-hander Jordan Romano has signed a one-year, $2 million deal with the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

The former Blue Jays closer lands a one-year deal with the Angels, who also signed fellow reliever Drew Pomeranz to a one-year pact on Tuesday. Romano was a once-dominant closer for the Blue Jays, but has struggled over the past two seasons, most recently posting an 8.23 ERA in 49 appearances for the Phillies in 2025.
