Fantasy Impact

With the Reds commanding a nine-run lead, Romano was called on to close out the game from the seventh inning in what was his first big league appearance of the year. It remains to be seen how/when the Reds will use Romano, but it likely won't be in high-leverage situations.

Fantasy Impact

Sal Romano was trounced by the Indians Tuesday, allowing six runs on seven hits with two walks and a strikeout over 1 2/3 innings.

Fantasy Impact

Romano has been useful in spurts this season, mostly as a deep-league streamer in good matchups, but this certainly wasn't his day. He's been hard to trust in most leagues, as he now has an ERA and WHIP of 5.31 and 1.45 on the season.

Sal Romano struggled against the Tigers on Wednesday, giving up four runs on eight hits over 5 1/3 innings while taking the loss. He struck out four and walked none.

Fantasy Impact

Romano gave up a two-run double to Jose Iglesias in the second and a solo homer to Jim Adduci in the fourth. Wandy Peralta then allowed an inherited runner to score forcing in Romano's fourth earned run. The loss on the day dropped Romano to 6-9 on the year. He's scheduled to face the lowly Mets in his next start.
