Jordan Romano has no business on an MLB roster. He gave up a leadoff double followed by a base hit. Them gave up a 3-run homer. All with no outs.
It’s now 11-10 after Romano gave up a 3-run dinger, followed by two base hits, followed by another 2-run dinger.
What the f*ck is Topper thinking using him?!

His last couple appearances were solid and I thought he may have turned the corner. Today?? Yikes.....
He needs to get right or get optioned to Triple-A (if that’s still possible). The middle relief is a mess. Again.
I'm pretty sure that is not an option (pun intended). Once a player enters free agency, which Romano did, then I'm almost certain their option years (if they had any remaining) are voided, and they can no longer be optioned.
When Ranger is healthy, Romano needs to be sent packing and Ranger to the pen.
Then they need to send him packing and eat the rest of his $8.5M contract. It’s a one-year deal so not the end of the world.
The roster spot is too valuable to have a reliever who is completely unreliable.
