2026 Fantasy Outlook
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. Romo joined Baltimore's organization this offseason but is not on the 40-man roster. Read Past Outlooks

Receives outright assignment

February 6, 2026
Romo cleared waivers Friday and has been outrighted to Triple-A Charlotte while receiving a non-roster invite to spring training, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Romo was designated for assignment Sunday, and after clearing waivers, he'll remain within the organization. The 24-year-old catcher will join the White Sox at spring training as a non-roster invitee. Romo spent most of the 2025 season with the Rockies' Triple-A affiliate in Albuquerque, where he slashed .264/329/.409 with seven homers, 23 RBI, 28 runs scored and two stolen bases across 244 plate appearances.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
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 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.
