Romo's maxEV has declined each of the last three years at Triple-A while his hard-hit rate has remained dreadful -- 22.6 HardHit% in 60 games at Triple-A in 2025. He missed the first six weeks of the year with a finger injury, but it's unclear if that impacted his poor performance (74 wRC+) once he was activated in late-May. He was almost league average (95 wRC+) in a large sample as a 22-year-old at Triple-A in 2024 and was better than league average (103 wRC+) as a 21-year-old at Double-A in 2023, and Romo is only entering his age-24 season. At this point, he can be viewed as a glove-first No. 3 catcher who is just hanging on to his 40-man roster spot. If Romo gets unforeseen run in 2026, he at least makes enough contact to be useful as a home streamer in very deep leagues. Read Past Outlooks
