Drew Romo DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Colorado Rockies catching prospect Drew Romo (finger) is dealing with a finger injury. Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reported that the 23-year-old suffered this injury while sliding into a base during a minor league contest last week. Romo was left off the Opening Day Triple-A roster as a result. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as he may not be sidelined for long. He entered camp as a favorite to make the MLB roster but eventually lost his spot to Hunter Goodman. In camp, Romo posted an underwhelming .118/.211/.176 slash line with just one extra-base hit and a 1:4 BB:K. Last summer, Romo made his MLB debut and tallied nine hits with three doubles across his first 16 games. He should contend for an early return to the big leagues if he performs well at Triple-A.

Colorado Rockies prospects Adael Amador and Drew Romo were both optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday. Amador was having a nice spring, going 8-for-27 (.296) with nine RBI, five runs scored, and an 8:5 BB:K. The switch-hitter is Colorado's seventh-ranked prospect and offers a blend of power and speed. Last season at Double-A, he hit 14 home runs and stole 35 bases in 100 games. Romo got off to a cold start this spring, going 2-for-17 (.118) along with a 1:4 BB:K. The Rockies' 11th-ranked prospect will head back to Triple-A, where he hit .297 with 14 home runs last season. Both had a taste of the majors in 2024, albeit with little success, but Amador offers the better fantasy profile of the two and is likelier to get back to the big leagues sooner, maybe even before summer.
