Sergio Romo, RHP (2017 team – Dodgers and Rays)
Most National League fans know exactly who Romo is, as he spent nearly a decade in San Francisco as one of the top middle relievers in baseball. He also spent a couple of seasons as San Francisco’s closer.
Romo does not throw hard, topping out at about 90. What he does, however, is know how to pitch. He appeared in over 500 games with the Giants, recording three saves in the 2012 World Series.
He has made a lot of money during his career, but right now, after struggling last season, is looking for a place where he can prove he can be the effective pitcher he once was.
Romo would sign a one-year, incentive-laden contract. He would be a good gamble for the Indians.
