"Romano made his big league debut in 2019, but didn't produce good results in the big leagues until the following season. In 2020, the right-handed pitcher had a 1.23 ERA and 3.12 FIP in 14.2 innings pitched during the pandemic-shortened season. The 2021 season was Romano's first full season in the big leagues, posting a 2.14 ERA and 3.15 FIP in 63 innings pitched, making 23 saves in 24 attempts."
"By the 2022 season, Romano was the Blue Jays' full-time closer, with the pitcher posting his career-best season that year. In 64 innings pitched, Romano had a 2.11 ERA and 2.82 FIP, with a 28.3 K%, down from the 33.6 K% in 2021. Romano had a solid season in 2023, but dealt with injury and poor performance in 2024. After the 2024 season ended, Romano was non-tendered and eventually signed with the Philadelphia Phillies."
