Scouting Report: JoJo Romero
St Louis Cardinals | RP
Overall
Summary
JoJo Romero is a left-handed reliever for the St. Louis Cardinals who has emerged as a trade chip candidate ahead of the 2026 MLB trade deadline. The Cardinals are performing well early in the season (21-14 record), and while the organization plans to maintain their rebuild approach, Romero is being floated as a potential trade candidate due to his expiring contract ($4.26M, free agent after 2026). Multiple teams, including the Atlanta Braves, are reportedly interested in acquiring him to bolster their bullpen depth. Romero is viewed as a valuable left-handed reliever option that could complement existing bullpen pieces on contending teams.
