The Los Angeles Dodgers addressed the void left by Joe Blanton reaching free agency by signing Sergio Romo to a one-year contract. While Romo had spent his nine-year career with the San Francisco Giants, he grew up an avid Dodgers fan.
The right-hander spoke fondly of jumping to the other side of the rivalry, but actual time spent pitching for the Dodgers this spring has been limited. Romo appeared in two Cactus League games prior to joining Team Mexico for the World Baseball Classic, alongside fellow Dodgers, Adrian Gonzalez and Alex Verudgo.
Romo threw a combined two scoreless innings and had five strikeouts in those games.
