southsider2k5 Posted Thursday at 07:50 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:50 PM Another catcher? Well that is probably a statement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestEddy Posted Thursday at 07:53 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:53 PM (edited) Switch-hitter, Albuquerque numbers are probably inflated, 14 HRs in 370 PAs, 2020 1st rounder. 2024 - .297/.339/.499 Edited Thursday at 07:54 PM by WestEddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestEddy Posted Thursday at 08:04 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:04 PM Romo was a top 10 prospect in the Rockies org heading into last season. Plus defensively, has some pop as a switch hitter, and has minor league options. Not a bad guy to take a flier on. Feels like Korey Lee’s days are numbered now. https://t.co/EBxemcJUFy — Michael Suareo (@MSuareo) January 8, 2026 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autumn Dreamin Posted Thursday at 08:11 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:11 PM They had 6 catchers going into ST last season (Quero, Teel, Lee, Hackenberg, Thaiss, Narvaez). Romo gets them back to 5 after the departures of Thaiss and Narvaez. Charlotte needs help there, so probably another depth add or two coming. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, I went and looked at the 40 man roster this morning in preparation for a post and saw that guy on there and also said "who the f*** is Ben Cowles?" Same for Tanner Murray, no idea who that guy is or where he came from. Must have missed that add. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted Thursday at 08:54 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:54 PM Another good move on the margins. Refreshing to finally have some upside guys at the end of the 40 man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted Thursday at 09:02 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:02 PM He has 2 options remaining, whereas Lee has none so Lee would have to make the team which wouldn’t be an issue if they carried 3 catchers. I don’t think they should though and should still play both Teel and Q every day (though, it doesn’t seem like that will be the case).

Have to think Lee will be traded in early spring for a team that has a injured backup catcher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted Thursday at 09:13 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:13 PM It's still weird that we are hoarding catchers when we refuse to let our catchers do anything other than catch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleAleSox Posted Thursday at 09:47 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:47 PM Lee and Robert for some controllable pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSpalehoseCWS Posted Thursday at 09:50 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:50 PM I think this signals they aren't planning on carrying Teel, Quero, and Lee on the major league roster. Romo is a very good fielder and gives them some catching depth if they lose Lee when they eventually try to sneak him through waivers. Not a bad move by any means, especially if they can get him to hit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
