While Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is only day-to-day — yet available off the bench — following his recent injury scare, the same unfortunately cannot be said for left-handed reliever JoJo Romero.
Last week, the Phillies placed the 24-year-old on the 10-day injured list with a left elbow sprain after he showed noticeable diminished velocity in a relief appearance against the Milwaukee Brewers.
The injury status of Phillies LHP JoJo Romero is not looking good.
While manager Joe Girardi gave a favorable outlook on Realmuto’s status prior to the team’s game against the Washington Nationals on Wednesday, he did not provide an official update on Romero’s elbow.
