Drew Romo -- Fantasy Value
Fantasy Value sources for Drew Romo of the Chicago White Sox
Drew Romo's 2026 season fantasy projections indicate a modest offensive profile for the Chicago White Sox catcher. His rest-of-season outlook projects 131 plate appearances with a .222 batting average, .275 on-base percentage, 13 runs, 4 home runs, and 14 RBIs. Week 7 projections show slightly improved batting average (.240) and slugging percentage (.383) over a smaller sample of 22 plate appearances. Draft season projections were more conservative, estimating just 25 plate appearances with a .218 average and .589 OPS.
Recent game-by-game performance reveals significant variance from projections. Romo exceeded expectations substantially on April 28, posting 19 actual points against a 1.6 projection (+17.4), and again on May 3 with 8.5 actual points against 2.2 projected (+6.3). However, he underperformed expectations in five of seven recent games, including outings on May 6 and May 4 where he scored zero points against 2.2 and 1.9 projected points respectively. This volatility reflects the challenges in projecting performance for backup or reserve-level players with limited plate appearance opportunity.
