Stat Review
How does JoJo Romero compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Romero was exclusively a starter in the minors but was a reliever in his debut season last year, appearing 12 times and throwing 10.2 innings. He stumbled to a 7.59 ERA in those innings, but the underlying numbers don't paint nearly such a negative picture of his future. His 3.66 FIP and 3.53 xFIP indicated that he performed just fine, as he combined a slightly below-average 21.3 K% with a strong 4.3 BB% and 50.0% groundball rate. Whether the Phillies keep him in the bullpen or continue to develop him as a starter going forward remains to be seen. If he returns to the rotation, he'll likely need some more seasoning in the minors, as he produced a 6.88 ERA in 13 starts for Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2019. The fact that he throws left-handed may cause the Phillies to elect to keep him in relief, where he'll have an easier path to a big-league role but is unlikely to find himself in a fantasy-relevant job.
