The Philadelphia Phillies have reportedly signed closer Jordan Romano to a one-year contract as the Winter Meetings commenced. This move comes after Romano was non-tendered by the Toronto Blue Jays earlier this offseason.

Romano, who has shown promise as a top closer when healthy, had a challenging 2024 season due to elbow issues. His performance from 2021-2023 was stellar, and the Phillies hope he can regain that form.

While the financial details are still pending, Romano's addition is expected to solidify the Phillies' bullpen, which struggled last season. Fantasy managers are likely to view this move positively, as Romano is positioned to be the primary closer for a contending team.
