2025 Fantasy Outlook

Romo is an impatient hitter, but he still has a chance to be a viable option in two-catcher or NL-only leagues at some point this season. He slashed .297/.339/.499 with 14 home runs, three steals, a 17.8 percent strikeout rate and a 4.3 percent walk rate in 85 games at Triple-A, but his strikeout rate almost doubled (34 percent) in 53 plate appearances in the big leagues to close the year. Romo's combination of power (.201 ISO) and contact (80.8 Contact%) as a 22-year-old catcher at Triple-A was impressive, and his blocking, framing and pop time were all at least slightly above average per Baseball Savant in his brief cup of coffee. Colorado invested significantly in Romo, drafting him 35th overall in 2020 with a signing bonus north of $2 million, and he doesn't have stiff competition on the depth chart at the beginning of the offseason.

Romo is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers.

ANALYSIS
Romo has now picked up just two starts in the Rockies' last seven games. With Jacob Stallings and Hunter Goodman also on hand as options at catcher, Romo is unlikely to see steady enough playing time over the final two weeks of the season to make for a reliable fantasy option, even in NL-only leagues.

2024 Fantasy Outlook

Romo spent most of 2023 at Double-A Hartford and had a .254/.313/.440 slash line with 13 home runs and six steals in 91 contests before joining Triple-A Albuquerque late in the year. The 22-year-old is Colorado's top catching prospect, and he should have a decent chance of making his MLB debut in 2024. Elias Diaz is entering the final year of his contract, and the Rockies may want to get a look at Romo in the majors before making any decisions for 2025.
